Perks Blvd Lyrics

Last night I dreamt Smokey the bear

Quit his job like he couldn't care

He just chuckled chucking sticks at his funeral pyre

Saying no one will prevent this forest fire

As flames flew from my front yard

I saw my brother's car back on the boulevard

And I hate to say it but I think it's fate

This burning out in New York State

Sweetly and slow the maples sway

As the ATVs all sound away

As I'm bored on the porch

As per my habit

As Sammie says Collin, no, you are not your sadness

Yeah she's been busy in the city working public health

Now she gets home and has to worry I don't care for myself

At the pity party, I'm sleeping on the couch

Living with my partner in my parents house

So tonight I'll see Smokey the bear

He'll ash his spliff on a stump and I won't even care

Cuz no matter what I'll wake up sweating, prolly out of breath

And when I get to work I'll already be upset

Cuz I'm like a zombie, my rotting body's so slow to act with

Set off defensives, feral and Fit to attack

A gnawing hunger that's humming under

I'm seeing stars then

Waking up at my desk from Perks Boulevard

Sweetly and slow, her hips will sway

In the night silver light her skin shines grey

As we hold the wall to cut the squeaking out

Sleeping with my partner in my parents' house

28 at home, Sammie I feel your pain

To believe the lie so you can act the same

At the pity party, you're sleeping on the couch

Living with your partner in his parents house
