Redneck School Of Technology Lyrics - Telepathic Surgery - Flaming Lips

I'm draggin' everybody down 

But being healthy's just a big drag anyway 

I'm startin' to reconsider things 

I'm gonna live like a trucker without his uppers every day 

Me and mom sit and talk all night about 

Peace and love and politics 

And the millionaires we'll be someday 

My momma told me something once 

She told me something, I forget what it was 

Ronny Van Zandt's ghost lives inside of me 

But he just sits there 

I don't know what he does 

I'm leaving everything behind 

Except my mind and my valentine if I got time 

Gonna go to some redneck town where 

They hold class in the middle of the night 

If my school had burned to the ground 

I would've gotten smarter sooner 

And you know that's right.
