I'm pulling weeds
The weeds are just some art I made, my canvas for anxiety
Think you could fall on that grenade?
It's your internship ... and there's no pay
No room for cream
No room for error or for doubt
No holier than tho or thou
Maybe light snacks are all you need
A giant pretzel could make you feel better
Bored of the dance, I laugh in spite of myself
What side of bread is the side with the butter on it?
Listen to your heart (no)
Keep on keeping on (no)
Just say "no" to drugs (no)
Eat a healthy lunch (no)
Draw outside the lines (no)
Pay your parking tickets (no)
Buy one get one free (no)
Turn the other cheek (no)
Just because it's funny doesn't make it a joke
Now stop meditating and take me to go bowl
Use it till it's gone (no)
Keep on keeping on (no)
Horse after the cart (no)
Listen to your heart (no)
My hall of fame
And panic is the sport I play
We always play on Saturday
You and I both in uniform
Wherever we go, we take our big-ass folding chairs
It's a fantastic way to build a monument
A monument to Ativan
Three-legged dogs don't seem to mind
Take a good idea and do it too much
Bored of the dance, I laugh in spite of myself
What side of bread is the side with the butter on it?
Listen to your heart (no)
Keep on keeping on (no)
Just say "no" to drugs (no)
Eat a healthy lunch (no)
Draw outside the lines (no)
Pay your parking tickets (no)
Buy one get one free (no)
Turn the other cheek (no)
Just because it's funny doesn't make it a joke
Now stop meditating and take me to go bowl
Use it till it's gone (no)
Keep on keeping on (no)
Horse after the cart (no)
Listen to your heart (no)
