lyrics

i'm at the Sky Mall
i'm at the Sharper Image
i'm at the Brookstone
i'm at the Indiegogo
meet me in my office in Space Space Mountain
parsley, sage, rosemary and cilantro

you blinded me with Scientology, a kind of bad magic
a former wunderkind with resting sad face
a busted Keystone Pipeline of unlistened voicemail in Social Death, South Dakota, Airbnb with the lord

i'm coming out of my grave
and i've been doing just fine

Ted Talk city, improve your life
zero days without an injury
dog pet city, improve your life
it's at the bottom of a bag of coffee beans
what was so bad about the ground you had to cover with fake grass?
broken printer, improve your life
how hard is it to wash your hands

i take the 5th
i take the 69th
i take the 420th
i take the 311th
a resurrection miracle, or just a large piece of trash?
and what is Macklemore doing here among the undead?

god bless you Dr. Lexapro
god bless you Dr. Tylenol
there's no ramen in the afterlife – it's just noodles!
everyone in the we'll-call-your-name-when-your-order's-up restaurant is named Greg in Social Death, South Dakota, Airbnb with the lord

i'm coming out of my grave
and i've been doing just fine

Ted Talk city, improve your life
zero days without an injury
dog pet city, improve your life
it's at the bottom of a bag of coffee beans
what was so bad about the ground you had to cover with fake grass?
broken printer, improve your life
how hard is it to wash your hands

i'm coming out of my grave
and i've been doing just fine
but i would like a sno-cone
life comes at you slow

i'm coming out of my grave
a spiritual gaucho
can i get an espresso?
life comes at you slow
