Looping Chronicles Lyrics

Once upon a time before the pinhead got so bright

Way before the action figures— way before that night

In the land of plenty every single bed was wet

Everything was maximum — everyone was set

All your atoms mixed up with some space dust circling Mars

I started thinking 'bout your rotten luck with cars

You drove like shit, but you loved to get away

Leave behind your little house and waste another day

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Lips and mouth are not so great

Distant things are not so great

Everybody thinks I'm a raincloud

You're right, we do

Everybody thinks I'm dead

You're wrong, we don't

Everybody thinks I'm a raincloud

You're right, we do

Everybody thinks I'm dead

You're wrong, we don't

Was dropped so often on my head as a little child

You can tell this from the way I think and talk so wild

Though I was picked up and comforted immediately

You would think that I had been dribbled repeatedly

Father's got it in for me, there's movement in the loam

He waits beneath the tree for his little pipkin to come home

It's true in life that we did not see eye to eye

But I'm too old to keep on dancing with that guy

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Amazing things are not so great

Heart and soul are not so great

Everybody thinks I'm a raincloud

You're right, we do

Everybody thinks I'm dead

You're wrong, we don't

Everybody thinks I'm a raincloud

You're right, we do

Everybody thinks I'm dead

You're wrong, we don't

He never meant to marry

He never meant to settle down

She got her looks in, she got her hooks in

Next thing he knew he was underground

He never meant to marry

He never meant to settle down

She got her looks in, she got her hooks in

Next thing he knew he was underground

The tallest trees are not so great

Time itself is not so great

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Next time, see ya on the other side

Everybody's leaving this lonely heart of mine

Whatdya mean, I can't date your sister

Then why'd she have to go and look so fine

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Could it be

Profit and loss are not so great

All my words are not so great

You dominate our thinking, we talk about you still

You interfere with drinking hope you always will

You're more alive than ever, your death was just a lie

You're more alive than ever well there's another lie

Everybody thinks I'm a raincloud

You're right, we do

Everybody thinks I'm dead

You're wrong, we don't

Everybody thinks I'm a raincloud

You're right, we do

Everybody thinks I'm dead

You're wrong, we don't
