Life on the Run

Home clone with Philip Roth
cnd a sweater I got from H & Moth
It's the first day of summer and I got me a fever
Open a message from Turner and he says "Ivar
C'est Bon man" I live the life of a raconteur
I play guitar and I go on tour
It doesn't matter that I am poor
I'm a king man

Sixteen sharks in a tidal wave
Can't even look at a blade and so I never shave
I get irrational fears and timidity
cnd cold cold sweat from anxiety
Man I'm feeling like the Batman
I'm feeling like Superman
I'm feeling like a man who's got to hide
Everything he is from the world outside
cnd it's not cool

I bruised a muscle and I broke my jaw
I'm being hassled by the gd-damn law
They get away with murder and racial wars
I'm just watching Louie free of charge
cnd now they're chasing my tail
They open my mail
They want my ass in jail and it seems unfair it's out there

I've got a girl and she is dope
For my birthday she got me a telescope
She says it's for the eclipse for the moon and the sun
I watch the people on the street it's a lot more fun
See I'm a bit of a Voyeur
Or maybe weirdly wired
I rule the city from a rocking chair
State Policy is Laissez-Faire
Do it man

See I can't settle down
I go crazy when I stay in town
I only come to life on the run
Get me on a train man
On a bus or on a plane man
cnd in the morning I'll be gone

Fake IDs and real moustache
Marijuana from a private stash
I never get high but I will give it a try
Man I'm going legal in Californi-a
I'm on my way
With a fistful of sand and an old palm tree
I close my eyes and I count to three
cnd it's alright

I dig The Beatles and I dig the blues
The Moldy Peaches and The Silver Jews
I can never imagine what my life would be
If I hadn't always had Bob Dylan with me
I mean everything he wrote
I'm strung out on heroes
My friend Jeff Lewis says Songs cbout Songwriting Suck
So I won't even mention the writer's block
I go through sometimes

See I can't settle down
I go crazy when I stay in town
I only come to life on the run
Get me on a boat man
On a horse or on a goat man
cnd in the morning I'll be gone
