IN THE BEGINNING

i wish things were simple, things were more like this, then the new kids come in, it all gets inane

we all go more insane to the end - til the light dies out

something about what a dog once told me, we all on, we all must drink the poison from this

well with no resolve

i think that if we can’t breathe the air than maybe we should be the one gets put to death i think that

if we(can) breathe the air were gonna find a place to share and if you breathe the air with me i’ll be

free

so let me be let me do just what i want ta do - i don’t need ya bugging me

i only want to fly and be the wise guy - (i) don’t want to try - not too much anyway

i want to be free to be lazy - to be hungry - to be shy to be wondering why all these people are

always getting on me getting on me - trying to make me be somebody they suppose me to be
