Education - We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank (2007)
Call it education It was somewhere in between You gave me some sound advice But I wasn't listening
After we had capsized I could tell you how you thought Well, I'm not sure But laid to rest on the city on the wall
Not quite conversation It was somewhere in between You said everything is taught And I listened patiently
All this talking pony Still monkies the whole time We could not help from flinging shit In our modern suits and ties
Our instincts, they were cringing About how we lived our lives It didn't seem we'd lived enough To even get to die
All these diss distractions So beautifully complex Well, I loved life's surprises so much I don't want to know what's happened
Stubborn shouting, said "I don't do what you do" I don't know Could it really hear highly if you highly care? And you don't Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty I've been away
Hardly education It was somewhere in between Oh, I hit the roof but I had Aimed for the ceiling
Hardly education All them books I didn't They just sat there on my shelf Looking much smarter than me
Good old Nostradamus He knew the whole damn time That always being east from west Someone is there fighting
Stubborn shouting, said "I don't do what you do" I don't know Could it really hear highly if you highly care? And you don't Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty I've been away Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty I don't know anyway Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty I don't know Could it really hear highly if you highly care? And you don't Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty Uh.. I fell away Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty Oh, very well, then Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty Oh, very well, then Stubborn beauty, stubborn beauty Oh, very well, then
