lyrics

Passed out on a plastic chair at the Lazy J Ranch
as a twenty year old crust punk with too much in his pants

I always thought she'd bring
numinous security
I always fell for the reddest apple in the tree

Fast forward a couple of years or so
I still made the same mistakes I did during the age of Four Loko

I was stressed out to the gills
from shopping mall shootings to shopping mall bills
I always thought that work would set me free

If you see her there (If you see her down at Sal's)
would you let her know? (Would you tell her?)
that she's invited to my soiree at the Lazy J Ranch
I hope she comes

Now I'm on Amazon priming my life up into fragments
I bought eight Jason movies and a pair Nike Air Maxes

I hope that they get here soon
because I can't keep doing all this howling at the moon
I'm trying hard not to shed my fur just yet

I'm still filled with hubris like the days of the DJ turntables
I try to self-mythologize, turn it all into a fable

But as a young teenage boy
I believed in records, I thought they'd fill the void
I was wrong

If you see her there (If you see her down at Sal's)
would you let her know? (Would you tell her?)
that she's invited to my soiree at the Lazy J Ranch
I hope she comes
