Luke I would be lying if I said I didn't clap my hands and yip in excitement whenever Phoenix & Co. announce a new project (so I won't say that), and I've yet to be disappointed Favorite track: The Last One, Before The Dinosaurs Come Back.

I went down to the parade On a Thursday one month late And all I found was a well tanned englishman sitting in the sun Looking for the bag in the frenchman’s arms Doing alchemy in the kitchen with a microwave saying “Be still my heart just shut up” My soul was split down the middle now I’ve found my other half in the abomination in your hand And I’ll go down to the end with all my friends singing “catch me if you think you can” I’ve been doing it all wrong it isn’t real i’m a fraud I just want to be cool and dead I just want to be cool and in my head You’re not a tortured artist you’re a fourteen year old kid I keep hearing about living the dream But I’m still not sure I know what that means Profane propane shaking ‘round my left brain Cause it rhymes as it should with the profound name We rocket we rocket further away From the 1800’s every day And it kind of bums me out but then again If I lived then I’d be dead anyway

i’m coming home as all my friends go away so i have to find something better to do get on my bike and go down to the lake and lift up a chair for all of my afternoon i’ll call up ___ and say “are you still here? i haven’t seen you in a month” we’ll go do the same things that we always do walk around pretending to be tough i’m coming home while all my friends go away isn’t that how it’s supposed to be just one weekend of the summertime blues then everything will be the same exactly i’ll call up ___ and say “are you home? i haven’t seen you since my birthday” we’ll do the things that we never do like see each other on a summer day i’m coming home while all my friends are away sticking together like they’re supposed to and i can’t say anything i’ll be a target of hate tagging along like i always do stick together stick together now

I’m back again going from A to D While the man collects cans in his cart on the street Maybe just because he’s great or for money He’s still more important to this world than I will ever be My back’s against a wall My world is coming down The best year of my life Is starting right now I thank god every day For AC and the rain And curse him for the sun And the pavement I’m back again going from A to D While Emery tells me of the dinosaur conspiracy He’s stockpiling now So we don’t go extinct I want jurassic park in real life just to see what happens now My back’s against a wall My world is coming down The best year of my life Is starting right now I thank god every day For AC and the rain And curse him for the sun And the feeling of my feet My back’s against a wall My world is coming down The best year of my life Is starting right now I thank god every day For AC and the rain And curse him for the sun And the pavement
