Didn't want the drugs
Didn't want the aimlessness
Didn't want the bad philosophy
Don't want to walk through a frame
I just want something to eat
Want to read an underground newspaper
In my bare feet
Want to live in the purple and blue Victorian house
That's up the street
Don't want to take a test
I just want to hear the band play
Want to walk past colorful posters
When the sky is gray
And sleep tonight in the purple and blue Victorian house
That's up the way
Sometimes, I feel like some of the institutions
Are beautiful in their way
And that they are not just awaiting revolutions
Or withering and decay
We organized the crew
They couldn't put the freeway in
They're taking pictures for Time magazine
Film producer called today
They want to use one of our songs
We could put that on the second album
That's coming along
And right there in the purple and blue Victorian house,
We're staying strong

I told myself that something was wrong
I told myself that the problem was mine
I couldn't see that with one thing wrong
My score was still 99.9
Some things stick out in memory
Like deviations from a straight line
Some things stick out more than they should
More than the other 99.9
If I should wake when the sun does rise
And shine down on this city of mine
Just let me try this one more time
To reach that score, 99.9
