i was a part of something moving, a groovin' thing
we were the favorites of the people, playing out our gigs
and once our songs were nice attractions for the sunday wives
they were the greatest moments of my worthless life
and i slowed
yeah, i know
hey, hey
i'm happy, i'm really happy
please bring me down
it's now time for something tragic
to blow me away
it's now time for something static
to change me
it's now time for something that might last forever
in this vicinity i cut my finger on the string
it was a vicious song but hey, it was our thing
and on the stage it seemed that all my troubles had fallen out
but in the end it was the singer's mic stand that drove me down
fell to the ground
(and i never got up)
hey, hey
i'm smarter, i'm really smarter
please end this comedy
it's now time for something tragic
to blow me away
it's now time for something static
to save me
it's now time for something that could last forever
these things will never last forever, these things will never change
these things will never last forever, some people never change
it's now time for something tragic
