Believes the town is sinking The price of forward thinking You stay up all night half the time Racking your mind Alone at night While all the neighbors sleep tight Verse 2 Years ago she lost her daughter Off to a sacred order Where they get stoned and work the earth Clears up her head with bourbon Cause beer is so suburban And declasse for what it's worth Chorus She drinks it down down down For all of the old old days She's thinking of it now It's nice to get away But what a fine day for a parade **Play intro 2x Verse 3 She stays up mending curtains Until her fingers hurt, and You can get so bored of it all No one can say for certain She'll never safely know when An asteroid will kill us all Chorus (x2) She drinks it down down down For all of the old old days She's thinking of it now It's nice to get away But what a fine day for a parade (repeat and fade)
