Well you got a lot on your mind
The worried ember you can't leave behind
You can't wait for it to disappear
When you're healthy Oh (x3)
When you're healthy Oh (x3)
Grab the paper try to write it down
But it all sounds like a stilted clown
Take a walk on along the avenue
Take a breath of that sweet fresh air
Look at the moonlight in the afternoon
What do you wanna do?
I don't care
cuz I'm
Healthy (x3)
Healthy (x3)
Well you got a lot in your heart
And the memories keep you apart
From the simple joy A day to day
Like flowers, or that dog
See an old friend, hear that frog
Grab a pack and wolf the whole thing down
Renewed subscription to the infinite frown
Take a walk along Olympia street
Take the alleyways and Drag your feet
Take a breath of that poisoned air
What do you wanna do?
I don't care
cuz I'm
Healthy (x3)
Healthy (x3)
Healthy (x3)
Healthy (x3)
(outro)
And you know that I thought that I saw you last night
When that happens you know that I'm thinking of you (x2)

I've been thinking
I've been thinking 'bout the way I,
Make a living, Sold your body to the corpo-
-rations make it, fun make the company lots of money
I've been thinking
I've been thinking 'bout the way you,
Make a living, sold your body to the state to,
Uphold traditions, based on violence
And enforce Silence
(Slipping falling )
Oh no!
You could do it you could do it
Chorus:
And I thought I saw you cryin'
through the, Windowsill late last night
And I thought I'd ask you what's wrong?
But who am I, to reach across the aisle?
And you know it's got me paranoid, what's that?
Creepin' on the other side
But it feels so good to no show, too slow
the moment that they cross the line
__
I've been thinking
I've been thinking 'bout the insti-
-tution of it, Miller High Life gotta love it
Made me sick I'll, see you in the afterlife I,
Hope they don't um, have jobs in heaven baby!
I've been thinking
I've been thinking 'bout the way you,
Make a living, Replace the dying with the younger,
of them ain't it, funny how they all have children
Yet they turn the lights off early on the earth
(Chorus)
You could do it you could do it
I hope they don't have jobs in heaven baby did they lie?
I hope the sun is always setting while you're waiting on the other side

I been swimming out there
Till I can't see the rocks
Till I can't touch the bottom
So I can't talk
I've been trying to eat healthy
I been going for walks
I don't believe in "self-care"
But I get the thought
I've been thinking 'bout Olfa
Minnie's blood on the cot
I been thinking 'bout you man
And how the rubbing cleans the rot
It's a thick cream moon
It's the letters C U soon (x2)
And when a dog eats a worm
I'll bet it tastes like candy
And is love something earned?
And does it live within me?
Does it live in you or is it dead within me
You've been trying to keep steady
But you're staying up too late
Warm embrace by the window
And another didn't take
I've been thinking 'bout love and
How it's just a betrayal
Of yourself when you first start
And it hurts like hell
It's a thick cream moon
It's the letters C U soon (x2)
You're a swimmer
You're a winner (x8)
You hold the golden microphone
Next to the L.E.D fountain
I hear you cryin' on the phone
Through pink mist you're frownin'
I'll stay quiet when I lay,
my head upon your,
chest
You're a swimmer
You're a winner (x3)
You're a swimmer (!)

Let me see what's on your wrist
I sit directly on the edge
How did I not see that front?
(Hiding in the back) !
How did I not know that I'd just
inner parrot!
So is it kind of like The Nails?
I never put foot on the table
And then I dressed up for the weather
(Max's Leather)
But I'm a farm boy in your lies
(yeehaw)
Tortured to be in the arena
Can you tell Krista pass the gravy? Cuz I,
Don't wanna look into her eyes (Johnny Devil)
Tell Kim to meet me in the basement
Cuz I've got a big city surprise
A freak, a dial
(Wrong number try again)!
A week, a demon
(Don't let that creature in)!
Don't let that creature in (x2)
I don't need, a pay day
I just need, you to see, who you are
In your own mind, on your own time
Then call (x2)

And you know that I'd do anything, for you
And you know I don't mean anyone, but you
Let me slip into some evening wear
You don't have to worry about the world
Right now
And you know I thought about it all day long
And I don't know what I'm gonna do, you're so chic
It's the crazy things you do to me
earth's a freak
But the thing is I am also too
(Dog Bark)
You don't have to worry about the world
Right now
2474247 lookout!
Ya you have to worry about the world
Right now
