[Intro]
~#**************#~
Did no one ever teach you how to dance?
~#**************#~
Nobody ever taught you how to dance?
~#**************#~
Well—well, everyone knows how to dance
~#**************#~
Theres only so much time
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Yeah, somebody died today, I
~#**************#~
I saw his picture in the funny papers
~#**************#~
Didnt think anybody died on a Friday
~#**************#~
Some angry banker, some kind of money trader
~#**************#~
Recently divorced, was drunk drivin down the highway
~#**************#~
And drove off the bridge to his wedding song
~#**************#~
Blew out the bass in his speakers, you can still hear the treble goin (Treble goin)
~#**************#~
The hospital was useless, and everything was quiet but the music
~#**************#~
Recently, I only meet peace when in deep sleep
~#**************#~
Been the same dream, world safe, smile on her face
~#**************#~
Waitin on the other side (The other side)
~#**************#~
I wonder if Hell take me to the other side (The other side), yeah
~#**************#~
What your eyes see, too naive for war, and thatll screw ya
~#**************#~
Still bet it all on the glory, hallelujah
~#**************#~
I heard the answer in the gibberish of an old drunk
~#**************#~
All he said was hes in no rush
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If I could just pay my rent by Tuesday
~#**************#~
I bet Id be rich by April Fools day
~#**************#~
The moons wide awake, with a smile on his face
~#**************#~
As he smuggle constellations in his suitcase
~#**************#~
Dont you love silence? (Silence)
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Everything quiet but the music (Music)
~#**************#~
Everything quiet but the music
~#**************#~
Do you love silence? (Ooh)
~#**************#~
Everything quiet but the music
~#**************#~
(Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Somebody gave birth to a baby boy
~#**************#~
I saw his picture in the funny papers
~#**************#~
Eleven pounds, named after his uncle Gabriel
~#**************#~
His mother cried with her lips against his soft face (Soft face)
~#**************#~
Whyd she bring these bright eyes into this dark place?
~#**************#~
Oh, sweet, sweet oblivion
~#**************#~
Way before the information gets settled in
~#**************#~
I swear to God I never wanna sin again
~#**************#~
But I fear that troubles on its way (Yeah)
~#**************#~
The mind go with age, dont surrender
~#**************#~
My mistake, I misplaced all of my remembers
~#**************#~
Baby, theres a little vacation in the dresser
~#**************#~
Take one for depression, and two for your temper
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If I could just pay my rent by Tuesday
~#**************#~
I bet Id be rich by April Fools day
~#**************#~
The moons wide awake, with a smile on his face
~#**************#~
As he smuggle constellations in his suitcase
~#**************#~
Dont you love silence?
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
Oh shit, here come the icebreaker
~#**************#~
Its danger when hes bringin out the lightsaber
~#**************#~
The words awesome but hes talkin outta turn often
~#**************#~
I blew the fuck up, then became the worlds problem
~#**************#~
Bad hygiene, all about that gross life
~#**************#~
Hate to see somebody fuckin up their own life (Their own life)
~#**************#~
Just roll the dice, put a twenty on midnight
~#**************#~
Have a feelin we gon win tonight (Win tonight)
~#**************#~
‘Cause when the snakes start slitherin, you spot the chameleons
~#**************#~
You realize you surrounded by reptilians (‘Tilians)
~#**************#~
Shit, I aint an innovator, just a motherfuckin illustrator (Illustrator)
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
Why does it matter
~#**************#~
At all? Oh, woah, woah
