Too Tired To Wink

I gotta lotta people telling me I smell like the dead

Apparently they cannot see that

I'm already walkin' 'round without a head.

I've got a problem with the object of the ongoing game

Set the self upon the shelf

And drag your shell through the day.

But look at all the stars

We've come so far

Even if we don't know where we are.

It's gotta be somewhere great,

Or am I just too tired to wink?

I seen a thousand towns without and ounce of hot irony

It leaves me begging for aesthetics

Please offend someone sweet in front of me

I'm sloughin' brains (I'm sloughin' brains)

I'm sloughin' brain cells every day

Smearing the globe, my lobe frontally frayed.

But look at all the stars

We've come so far

Even if we don't know where we are.

It's gotta be somewhere great

Man, I don't even know what you're sayin'

But I can't wait

For more of this to come my way

'Cause you take what you get

And you try not to think

Or am I just too tired to wink?

I stored a cyclops for a week with hard-tack in the clink

If ever he would bat a lid I thought it was a wink

But the world is flush with monocular mush and dingbats to despise

You find they're not thinking, just narrowly blinking,

But never quite cleaning their eyes.

We've come so far

Even if we don't know where we are.

It's gotta be somewhere great

Or am I just too tired,

Or am I just too tired to wink?
