Slumming It With Johnny Lyrics - Say Anything

Me and John rode out from ocean heading east 

I had to see with my own eyes the factories 

I'm buggin out 

We've never strayed this far 

Right out of town southeast and down 

Inside my filthy car 

But when we got there all we saw were more malls and marble mansions 

In emerald parks the singing larks proclaimed the great expansion 

There is no beautiful garbage 

They cleared it up already 

Tears roll out the eyes and though I cry I hold the wheel steady 

Steady! 

Do do do do do do do do do 

Do do do do do do do do do 

When I get home 

I cannot stand my house 

My father still fighting with his trophy unfaithful spouse 

I hear the echo now I see it somewhere else 

A thousand ways, a thousand days, a thousand towns across the commonwealth 

Out on a date but like a dog she smells the fear and runs 

And still we make our cheap tortured artists are no fun 

I dream of anger, sex, unnurtured I succeed but still 

Soon I'll be poppin pills 

This emptiness will not be filled or caved 

Do do do do do do do do 

Do do do do do do do do 

Look at the earth 

It's just so green 

Perhaps it's envious of all the galaxies it's seen 

Where forces swirl in symbiotic harmony 

Free of the taint, the gas, and paint of parasites like me 

Keep using love as the excuse for why we're fat and lazy 

Wait to grow old, like we've been told 

Go bald, go west and crazy 

This is so pointless it actually holds up out evolution 

Sing it to the bastards 

FREE YOURSELF FROM MENTAL PROSTITUTION 

Do do do do do do do 

Do do do do do do do 

Oh Oh I didn't know I didn't know 

Oh Oh I didn't know I didn't know
