exploring the multiverses sound by sound and word by word
Story behind the song
story behind the song: decisions, decisions, decisions. mind over matter/will power vs the prescription way out. its amazing how lives can be edited by surgical alteration, prescription drugs et al these days. against the backdrop of who you were, the different flavours of yourself, to you and as they taste to others. all that and the omnipresent urge to be happy. prescription t apparently = "t" today
Lyrics
sometime ago i realized
the world is what it seems
turned off the tv, the radio down
listened to outside scenes
had to walk more, and because of that
heard the music of years
the cadence of the picture imperfect
no cropping off the tears
should have got the laser treatment
so i could see with mine own eyes
got myself some pink sunglasses
and stayed happy til i died
day to day we all get by,
passed what? leaves us so confused
we have our schedule, mapped out lives
we all know what to do
but looking round it seems to me
someone has been selling lies
and it seems their hand's out for more
after repackaging the down sized
should have gone and kept real quiet
cause that's the way the world is
yeah got myself some rose eyewear
learned to pucker up and ass kiss
should maybe get the laser treatment
so i can see with mine own eyes
get myself some pink sunglasses
and stay happy til i die
gotta get myself some pink sunglasses
and stay happy til i die
stay happy
stay happy
