Valley - All the Animals I Drew as a Kid

Valley - All the Animals I Drew as a Kid

well a bomb went off in Mexico today
and a priest in San Diego lost his faith 
and they’re searching for some real estate in space 
oh dying alone is such a fucking waste 

all the animals that I drew as a kid 
live in articles on how they wound up dead 
there’s still so many places I’ve not been 
but i’m sure they can’t be much better than this

cause when it’s all going to shit
and these days it usually is..

oh no it’s a consequential world we live in 
oh no we’re just lost and lonely experts 
but for you and I 
and our peace of mind 
in the case of a tragedy 
I still wouldn’t press rewind 

making fun of all our married friends 
while you moved out of your condo 
cause you can’t afford the rent 
if our life is slow to start 
like your father’s 80’s Benz 
then I guess it doesn’t matter how it ends 

cause when it’s all going to shit
and these days it usually is..

oh no it’s a consequential world we live in 
oh no we’re just lost and lonely experts 
but for you and I 
and our peace of mind 
in the case of a tragedy 
I still wouldn’t press rewind 

what if we starve and the power goes down
running out of things we could talk about 
what do we do then, what do we do now 
what do we do then, what do we do now 

so many birthdays in a Japanese house 
wouldn’t it be a shame if your parents moved out
what do we do then, what do we do now
what do we do then, what do we do now

lately old age seems around the bend 
when Mom is on depressants
and now Dad can’t feel his hands
and I’m waking up to nightmares where I’m losing all my friends  (but in the case of a tragedy I still wouldn’t press rewind)
