Everything Everything
"Schoolin'"

Brother you look like the Taj Mahal
One colossal dome above you and the smell of something or whatever
A pillar and a scimitar
A little…

Yes I miss you like the formless hide
Stretching over me and dangling from the coastguard in a chopper
The scaffold of me all awry
A little…

Broke your shoulder on the library steps
Hanging ‘round there in the dark just doing nothing or whatever
What do you mean you saw the stars?
You little…

I could write it in a murder font
I can say it a way that would be lying or whatever
I don't want them to tell us apart

You say that I'm an overlord?
I've got myself a fire hydrant
With more tyrant
In watery blasts
Then all of my past

You see me on the bridge a lot
But I never leapt over
The pent upper
My number is up, my number is up

But infinite and joyless little high fives
Are singing praise the lord
And pitter patter this schoolin'?
Is this schoolin'?
And “you matter not”
And “you matter not”

And Is it, the flogging of the Flinstone
That I'm supposed to be?
The cerebellum get schoolin'
And no schoolin'
The drummer goes on, the drama goes on

And I don't wanna make a scene
I don't wanna think about the third world hunger or whatever
Cause thinking always come across
A little…

And there's a meeting of the worlds tonight
Right above my head a miracle, the sun errupt forever
I barely ever raise my eyes
A little…

And oh I wanna make the peace
And god I gotta be on the train
Past the ruins the wall and the druids
Oh please


I'm whining like a braking bus
Maybe I can sit here and do nothing clever with a laser
I'm not about to open up…

You say that I'm an overlord?
I've got myself a fire hydrant
With more tyrant
In watery blasts
Then all of my past

You see me on the bridge a lot
But I never leapt over
The pent upper
My number is up, my number is up

But infinite and joyless little high fives
Are singing praise the lord
And pitter patter this schoolin'?
Is this schoolin'?
And “you matter not”
And “you matter not”

And Is it, the flogging of the Flinstone
That I'm supposed to be?
The cerebellum get schoolin'
And no schoolin'
The drummer goes on, the drama goes on
The drummer goes on, the drama goes on
My number is up, my number is up

Earth, I take a long time
To learn about the big one
Gorilla limb swipe and beat
And I learn nil about earth
Remember how men would understand the heavens
But leaving those streetlights on
You can't see nothing there

So learn me anything good

Teach me something that works
I take a long time
To learn about the big one
Gorilla limb swipe and beat
And I learn dick about earth
Remember good men would understand the heavens
But leaving those streetlights on
A ghost dark hemisphere

I take a long time
To learn about the big one
Gorilla limb swipe and beat
And I learn dick about earth
Remember good man you understand the heavens
But leaving those streetlights on
