lyrics

I know lots of people who know lots of famous people who know other famous people
and I could probably know them too, but I don't really think that I could put up with the pressure to look at myself in the mirror, in much closer proximity but still not any nearer.
The contrast just might make me disappear
And every time I play a show I feel intensely good for at least a couple minutes,
but eventually the feeling always goes, and then I'm just a jackass screaming through a microphone, calling out my desperate plea,
Won't somebody please look at me? and pat me on the back once in a while.
The curvature of earth is such that you can only see so much at once
The horizon's always in your sight and rainbows are just tricks of light and rain
It's a carrot hanging from a stick, and you'll never catch up to it, you know
And even if you did, you'd just get hungry again, so what's the point?
