Name: It's Killing Us
Duration: P00H02M14S
Description: Look, let's give it up. Let's just lay around and make love and take walks and talk a little. Let's go to the zoo. Let's look at animals. Let's drive down and look at the ocean. It's only 45 minutes. Let's play games in the arcades. Let's go to the races, the Art Museum, the boxing matches. Let's have friends. Let's laugh. This kind of life like everybody else's kind of life: it's killing us.

lyrics

All the way from New York City, baby
Still dazed from staying up all night
I'm thinking, don’t close your eyes this time

Like fantasies and fables, like myths and fairy tales
You open your eyes and it’s a white whale

Long days of summer have faded away
Now we’re left with these darker days
And in the morning it'll still be morning
And I'll still be living this way

I wanna play with girls and grenades
Drink cheap whiskey and boxed chardonnay
