The Normal - Boater Frog
Nature's calling
Lighting fires in a tomb
I don't know if you know what this means
But that wedding ring
And cocktail drink
Are the bait you eat
To fulfill my needs
All the signs are pointing to
Another candle filled with glue
A basement filled with numbers
A ballot box the choice was made for you
I've been picking up the news
Time is fluid
And I'm afraid for you
The powers that be
Are not the ones you choose
All the signs are pointing to
Another canvas filled with glue
A basement filled with numbеrs
A ballot box but the choice was made for you
I'vе been picking up the news
Keep dreaming
Keep drinking
Just wallow
In cheap gin
Keep running
And hiding
And wonder
What time is
