lyrics

If I could live in a technicolor wood,
don’t you think I would, if I only could?
If I could live in a technicolor wood,
if I only could, don’t you think I would?
I would build us a home
more beautiful than Paris or Rome;
They say it’s impossible to do,
I say, “Tell it to the man on the moon.”

If I could age like album cover art,
I’d sing “How Great Thou Art”
and take it to the top of the charts!
And you could use all the colors of the fall,
fallen leaves and all the curtains on Carnegie Hall …
Lacquered gold and blue,
grocery bags and glue;
They say it’s impossible to do,
I say, “Tell it to the man on the moon.”

Never hear a word that they say;
Who are they anyway?
You’ve got smarts and you’ve got a good heart
and I’m glad you’re with me in this world,
I aint foolin,
I’m glad you’re with me in this world.

I fucked up & I'll do it again
I'm not a monk
I'm not your friend/
when the mainframes crashed
and the towers came down
another Anthropocene
in an ordinary town ... more
