David Foster Wallace Lyrics - Singles - The Ugly Club

David Foster Wallace 

Song/Lyrics by: R. Egan 

Where we goin? 

Are we guessin? 

We find ourselves 

Right here again 

On a holiday. 

Youre heavy swimmin' 

With a shark bite sinkin in 

The television might 

Haunt my sleep tonight 

if I let it. 

Youre eatin roses 

Digesting beauty just because. 

Paid like a peasant 

Lost in love 

I got no money. 

Ahh where we goin? 

Cos Ive been wishin 

That chemically 

Wed fall asleep 

And never wake 

For the open curtain dream. 

There aint no show 

like the one I know 

get caught just listenin 

When I wake up 

I find it hard to walk away. 

Temptation is glowin 

Darlin we let it go 

Oh oh oh 

Too far to rewrite the wrong 

Put it down, little honey 

Get down. 

You think its push and shove 

Round here 

I think you try too much. 

You gotta get your fix 

Where your ambition is 

Will only bring you down. 

We used to think (think) 

We had it all controlled. 

Up to our necks (necks) 

Were being sold. 

We used to think (think) 

Without a broken signal 

Lagging in the mud. 

What we go through 

Is no surprise 

I only fear where 

Were headin. 

No mystery 

No smoke screen 

Our demise 

Is the high 

well be gettin'. 

CHORUS
