Lyrics

I just hit the ground, boy, have I arrived? Tell the dinosaurs, they just won't survive So I fell, and you just laughed, you think that I can't stand To see me trip this way, you think I'm second hand I have seen it all, she's the only one She belongs to me, I'm the lonely one Counting sheep and swatting flies, you think there's no more left Talk is cheap, how many lies sustain a single breath? Adam Chance and Zorro Take them with a pinch of salt Sad about tomorrow Sorry, but it's not my fault While they were shooting at the moon Somebody croaked and no one heard What's a sin or two In the history of the world Someone said to me, "Why d'ya play so loud?" What do you want from me, you corrupt the crowd Miles of print you'd think, we'd thought of nothing else There's more important things than ink and decibels Leave it to tomorrow Corporal Clott and Stalingrad They're the ones to follow They're the ones that make me glad Nobody alive and no one left Nobody cares or ain't you heard Looks like I'll take my dying breath In the history of the world The history of the world, part one
