NOFX - The Big Drag Lyrics
Official




Before James died, he smiled and laughed
'Cause he was just photographed for the last time
While it was drowned, the kitten purred
At least that's what I thought I heard
But maybe that's 'cause I need to believe in the absurd
Ashes to ashes after the planet crashes
I trust all dust will turn to dust

I used to think a wasted life was not a crime
That's before I realized we don't have very much more time

My melodies are maladies
My poetries are just phonetic

Trying to make sense of this world
Is preposterous, pathetic

The Gods have had their fun playing this world
But now it's too upsetting
The human race is not worth watching or wagering on
We're just a long shot, an underdog
With odds so bad now it's just a blood letting
So every deity with dignity has just stopped betting

So follow me into a world of anything you've ever dreamed
Now that morality is blurred if you listen really closely
You probably believe in every single word
Mesmerized by rhetorical and memorized historical events
That never actually occurred
We're not blind, we're bound and blinded
Our minds have been land-mined-ed
And I'm so excited

Every single person on this planet thinks that they are right
'Cause if you thought that you were wrong
You'd change your mind f*ck from black to white
I do believe in true romance
So I'm gonna dance and fight and f*ck with every moment
I'll always have something in my glass to raise
To make a toast for those making the most of the last days

Nothing is ever gonna change, nothing will ever be okay
Nothing is ever gonna change, nothing will ever be okay
There's only a finite number of tomorrows
And it's not a lot
But it's all we really got
It's all we really got
Live each precious moment
That we can manage to carve out of each day
So when it's time for us to die
We'll say our short goodbye
There's no sadness if there's no one left to cry
