about

I always like to end albums on an optimistic note

lyrics

Sometimes I feel I'm gonna cry
How does one survive these times?
When originality is a mortal sin
And creativity's career-threatening

Someday I might get a break
And achieve fortune and fame
I'd be an insufferable sex pest
Who evades taxes
In other words I won't change a bit

Sometimes a song
Sometimes a song

Can empty your mind
In a positive way
And make the whole world
Drift away
Pop when it's done right
Pop when it's done right
Is transcendentally trite
Is transcendentally trite

Music's meant to drive us mental
But don't go calling us sentimental
Sentimental means exaggerated feeling
And you can't exaggerate this feeling now

It's time to embrace
All the clichés

And empty your mind
Lay down to the void
Get up and dance
And ignore the killjoys
The world's full of killjoys
The world's full of killjoys
So drown them out with some noise
So drown them out with some noise
