Perks Boulevard 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 forth from my front yard,

I saw my brother's car back on the boulevard

Ya know I hate to say it

But I think it's fate

This burning out in New York State

Sweetly and slowly the maples sway

As the ATVs all sound away

As I'm bored on porch

As per my habit

As Sammie says Collin 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

It's a 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 tree 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

Set off defensives, feral and Fit to attack a

A gnawing hunger that's humming under

I'm seeing stars then

Waking up at my desk from Perks Boulevard

Sweet

Sweetly and slowly,

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

Ah we're 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
