Boop Boop Be Do Yeah! 
The sun sets across the ocean 
I'm a thousand miles from anywhere 
A pocketbook and my heart 
Both just got stolen 
And that sun act like she don't even care 
Wind blows cold when you reach the top 
It feels like someone's face is stuck to the bottom of my shoe 
I got a plastic Jesus and a cordless telephone for every corner of my room
Everybody but you telling me what to do 
Well I've been down so long 
Oh it can't be longer still 
And I've been down for so long 
That the end must be drawing near 
I looked to everybody but me 
To answer my prayers 
Til I saw an angel in the bathroom 
Who said she saw no one worth saving anywhere 
And the blind man on the corner said 
"It's Simple, like flipping a coin 
Don't matter what side it lands on 
It's someone else's dime" 
Well I've been down so long 
Oh It can't be longer still 
And I've been down so long 
That the end must be drawing near 
I take a trip 
I catch a train 
I catch a plane 
Got a ticket in my hand 
And then a fat man takes my money 
And like cattle we all stand 
We've been down so long 
Oh it can't be longer still 
We've been down so long 
That the end must be 
I know the end must be 
Oh I know the end 
Must be drawing near
