Popsicle girls melting in the street,
Preaching metaphorical speech that never spoke to me,
But I guess I know
I’m not alone.
Candy striped shades and lemonade,
One of you once told me that I seem wise beyond my age
But how could I
Believe you girl?
I don’t suppose
You’d care to know
Why I tried
‘Cause all this time I rocked and you rolled,
Eyes like diamonds and a heart like coal,
Up to no good here, tryna’ steal my soul!
Popsicle girls melting in my sheets,
Hangin’ on to all of my words like they knew what I mean,
But I'll have you know
I told 'em so.
Popsicle souls walking Venice Beach,
How could you say that true love is out of my reach?
I’ve hit my prime
But I’ll be fine.
And I don’t suppose
You’d care to know
Why I tried
‘Cause all this time I rocked and you rolled,
Eyes like diamonds and a heart like coal,
Up to no good here, tryna’ steal my soul!

Crashed in the trees, I have made my escape
Two hundred large in a brown briefcase
Forty years running and you can't catch me
8 sticks of dynamite, a fake ID
Isn't magic just a mystery?
Already stiffed you
I'm gonna get you
They're gonna miss you
I want to bid you adieu!
Separate your foot and I'll leave it in the shoe
Been feeling kinda funny and I started leaving clues
Find them with the seaweed laying on the beach
A few hundred bones? I'm still out of reach
The greatest swindle of the century
Already stiffed you
I'm gonna get you
They're gonna miss you
I want to bid you adieu!

I ain’t from around here, ain’t you the one who knows the way?
It's mighty hard to stay cool when the sun is throwin’ shade.
You thought this was paradise, but I have my doubts this time,
It’s been a delight, my friend, is this your violent end or mine?
I wanna see you, I wanna see you soon.
I guess I wanna, I wanna be there
In your dreams,
Where all I’ve seen,
Comes alive!
It’s been such a long time here, draw your guns, it’s time to fight;
And all these thoughts you’re having have never felt so right.
You then whispered in my ear that the maze is here to stay;
It’s been a delight, my love, but every dog still has his day.
I wanna see you, I wanna see you soon.
I guess I wanna, I wanna be there
In your dreams,
Where all I’ve seen,
Comes alive!

Flowers in the Cave

As dusk fell into darkness,
I was first to disappear
The other side's so lonely
Send a light to guide me home.
Fleas and acrobats in tandem,
Dance away the night in vain
Don't fall upside down again, El
Leave the flowers in the cave
Could you feel that I'm alive now?
Did you hear me call your name?
And the Pretty Princess wondered
Will the White Knight bring us home?
As the gates begin to close,
I could feel the cold inside
Don't fall upside down again, love
Leave the flowers in the cave
Could you feel that I'm alive now?
Did you hear me call your name?
And the Pretty Princess thanked me
When the White Knight brought us home

Finally I saw
What I have become
It scares me too, boy
I'd run if I were you
Cause I'm not going anywhere
Even though I've disappeared
You don't have to be afraid
I'll bring you flowers in the cave
You knew me well
Or so you thought
I'd like to be
Someone I'm not
Cause I'm not going anywhere
Even though I've disappeared
You don't have to be afraid
I'll leave you flowers in the cave

Close your lips and smile
Just you wait a while
It won't feel so bad
When you wake up from this dream
The colors that you see
The shapes that come to be
Are playing with your head
Don't worry you’re not dead (x2)
Some things you can't control
Stop doing what you’re told
Embrace the calm
The answer is found in rock ‘n roll
