The Apple Is Sliced
There's a place up in the mountains where no natural river flowsAnd a killing only makes you pass through the gatesWhere they swing hard on the links and sleep in modern homesWith one they adore and a woman who they hateThe pedestrian mall is boasting and waiting to be filledYou need something for the Mrs. to adorn the windowsillLike menus browse the windows but you don't like what you seeShe might not be hungry but you'll make certain she'll eatOne shot of happy, one shot of sadOne helps you remember and one makes you forgetEverything they say is true, I never was in love with youAnd if everything they say is true, I'd throw myself off cliffs for youMy future is an apple and I'm reaching for a sliceI don't care about money but having it is niceFor a couple years I'll work this job and then do what I wantBut there's nothing that I really want so I guess I'm saving upI'm living with my parents but at least I'm saving rentThey bought me a new Jetta and I didn't ask for itShe says I'm back with my old boyfriend now, what do you think of that?I've been unhappy for so long but I think it's gonna passOne shot of happy, one shot of sadSongtexteOne helps you remember and one makes you forgetEverything they say is true, I never was in love with youAnd if everything they say is true, I'd throw myself off cliffs for youThe traffic moves like two red lights on Sunday afternoonThere's one road to the city that everyone will driveThey know that life's a traffic jam but there's nothing else to doThe bumper sticker in front of me says "Jesus Loves You."Some guy is watching me smile now through his rear viewThinks I'm headed to Denver but I'm just passing through Aus Songtexte Mania
