nick lutsko - shakedown lyrics
[verse]
i’ve got gum in my hair
i’ve got blood on my shoes
i’ve got a million different reasons to be singing the blues
but mainly i’m just confused
is there something i missed?
it’s like everyone is doomed
but n0body’s p-ssed
and i’m alive, i’m alive
but it doesn’t feel right
it’s like i’m under the control
of an undetectable device
wait, i’ve got answers in my hand!
siri, what is wrong with me?
she says she doesn’t understand
then feeds me links on irony
[chorus]
this is beginning to feel like a shakedown
we’re sailing sideways through a fallacy
trying not to slip and choke on the way down
cover your -ssets if you know what i mean
i’ve got a bucket of dreams
i’ve got a head full of steam
i’m much too privileged to preach
did fascists k!ll this machine?
if i was sleeping then i swear i’m awake now
because i’m drowning in a fallacy
[verse]
i took a seat at the table
i cut the deck with my stare
bet all my chips on a straight
the b-st-rd won with a pair
i felt the ship begin to shake
i felt a changing in the air
i set a picnic on the plank
and dropped my tickets to the fair
god lit a candle on monday
so he could build us a home
he let it burn until sunday
then took a seat at his throne
the world caught fire, flames grew higher
as he left it alone
and now it’s too d-mn hot to touch
the flesh just drips right off the bone
[bridge]
but i’m still confused
i’m stuck on the fence
between ‘missing the point’
and ‘there’s nothing to get’
as we’re fighting to find meaning
to this ride around the sun
i’ve heard a million different reasons
and can’t believe a single one
[chorus]
this is beginning to feel like a shakedown
we’re sailing sideways through a fallacy
trying not to slip and choke on the way down
cover your -ssets if you know what i mean
i’ve got a bucket of dreams
i’ve got a head full of steam
i’m much too privileged to preach
did fascists k!ll this machine?
if i was sleeping then i swear i’m awake now
because i’m drowning in a fallacy
[chorus]
this is beginning to feel like a shakedown
because i’m drowning in a fallacy
this is beginning to feel like a shakedown
drowning in a fallacy
i’ve got a head full of bees
i bite my tongue til it bleeds
up to my neck in concrete
i really want to believe that
if i was sleeping then i swear i’m awake now
because i’m drowning in a fallacy
