First Impressions of Earth lyrics

I was all just a dream, oh no
The worst it was real
All my pets they were there and they smiled
Take a shit - it was fine
Everybody's so inviting
They've got it in for me I know
It's not that I don't really love you
It's just that I don't really know
The hateful things you think you want to say
Time will turn them into jokes...

Yes, it was all just a dream, oh no

Right, wrong, what to do?
Someday it will come to you
Hostile indians
We named our summer camp for you

I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I'm in utter dismay
I've got nothing to say

Harmless children
We named our soldiers after you
Don't be a coconut

Oh its strange to impress so near
Oh friends dont realize im here
I wish two drinks were always in me
I'd pretend I had the perfect ear
Take me to the water
Make me understand that i was wrong
For me tomorrow is my first day
So please don't tempt in the wrong way
Its almost after midnight.
I can see the city lites
We're here.

Change your mind tonight
You belong to the city now

They love you or they hate you but they will never let you be.
They thrill you or sedate you but they will never let you see.

In the evening sun. In the evening sun.

Encourage and deranged you. Watch you walking scared alone.
Despite intimidation... Pleased to watch you dance alone.

In the evening sun. In the evening sun.

Go your seperate way now. Someday you'll come back and I'll be

How did anybody find out where i was?
How did anybody find that out ?
I was hiding from the world, i was a squirrel.
You choped down my tree to get my fur.
Fear of sleep...
You're no fun.
Fear of the unknown.

I guess everybody's week must have been pretty rough,
Cause everybody's drunk, loud, and pissed off.
I know you hate to be impresed with someone else (other than yourself),

Well I don't feel better when I'm fucking around
And I don't write better when I'm stuck in the ground
So don't teach me a lesson 'cause I've already learned
Yeah, the sun will be shining and my children will burn
Oh the heart beats in its cage

I don't want what you want
I don't feel what you feel
See, I'm stuck in a city
When I belong in a field

I think I know what you mean but watch what you say 'cause they'll be trying
to knock you down in some way. Sometimes it feels like the world is falling asleep.
How do you wake someone up from inside a dream?
Your mind would wander and search its place in the night.
Your body followed this feeling like following light.
Once that your music was born it followed you 'round and then it gave

Everybody sees me
But it's not that easy
Standing in the light field
Standing in the light field
Waiting for some action
Waiting for some action
Oh but why won't you come over here

Why won't you come over here
We got a city to love
Why won't you come over here
We got a city to love

Old time grudges, Will die so slowly
I know you miss the way I saw you
You're cold
You're so cold

Find a prayer now
Don't be scared now
You don't want trouble
Well we might get some.
We might get some,
It's troublesome.
But don't you worry
You can help me...

Killing lies, killing lies,
Killing lies, killing lies

First you're worried
Then you're hurried
Don't think that everything
is gonna stay the same
That's impossible.
Before I let you go
Let me look at you

I'm tired of everyone I know,
of everyone I see
on the street
and on TV.

On the other side, on the other side
nobody's waiting for me.
On the other side

I hate them all,
I hate them all.
I hate myself for hating them,
So I'll drink some more.
I'll love them all.
I'll drink even more.
I'll hate them even more than I did before.

On the other side, on the other side

Oh, the razorblade,
that's what I call love.
I bet you'd pick it up and mess around with it if I put it down.
It gets extremely complicated.
Anything to forget everything.

You got to take me out atleast once a week,
Whether I'm in your arms or I'm at your feet,
I know exactly what you're thinking.
You won't say it now but in your heart it's loud.

Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Do it for the people that have died for your sake
An entire generation that has nothing to say.
How'd you make your way to me?
Let's say you made a deal with me and I got your name and your home adress
You're all trashed up with your big red belt
I would almost say that you might need help

Sing me a song
You could be
Tell me a tale
Just like me
Don't turn it my way
Happy and free
I'll turn it to shit
Happy and free...

Oh ooh

All that I do is wait for you
All that I do is wait for you
I can't get along with all your friends
Dont know how to act
That's all there is
Why do I accept the things you say?
You know what to change,
But not in what way.

Ooooh.
Some people think they're always right.
Others are quiet and uptight.
Others they seem so very nice.
Oh, oh.
Inside they might feel sad and wrong.
Oh, no.
29 different attributes.
Only 7 that you like.
Uh oh.
