When you're stuck out in the middle You just figure that there's something you're missing But it turns out that California Is just tripping and disinterested kissing Back in my hometown There was nothing but the hum of the locusts And the rest of my life To get used to being washed out of showbiz I was down around the docks But I never saw anyone surfing From a distance it looked pretty much perfect But it's different in person The doctor said he only wants To help me make more healthy decisions Went out around the Fourth of July And I was back by Thanksgiving I danced around the subject I swam in the Pacific Like the westernmost American Lanyards into laminates Everybody's trying to get the right kind of wristband Banging on the door again SongtexteShe just wasn't answering Showbiz is a struggle, man Someone called an ambulance Straightened out her necklace And we sped to Good Samaritan That girl from the Genesee Cleaners wasn't from there either We sunk into the seats downtown at some second shot theater She took me home to her place in a camper van behind some old warehouse Said she couldn't come down and crash until we listened to 'Wipe Out' Her character's cool She's just dialing in her motivation She's into new things But she won't go to a second location She's never gone deep But she might make an exception for Shark Week When they kicked in the door They said, "That's way too much blood for a nosebleed" Hospital security Everybody needs to see the right color wristband She said she had a meeting I thought they were mistaken But depression isn't kidding, man The scene stuck in my head of her spread out on her bed Like she's showing off her wingspan I sat in heavy traffic I drowned in the Pacific Then I went back to the heartland The doctor said he only wants To help me make some better decisions Went out around the Fourth of July And I was back by Thanksgiving I saw a few stars But I never made it into a movie Still trying to make moves But I'm back in Independence, Missouri Aus Songtexte Mania
