lyrics

I’m simultaneously disturbed and serene
Simultaneously unnerved and relieved
Shackin up in the middle of a dream
Sprawled on a cul-de-sac, squinting up at a Rorschach sky

Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?

The clocks are doing the moon-walk, the astronauts are unfazed
Big mouths are doing their small talk and atheists are pray, pray, praying
Children singing life is but a dream
Sun-drunk on the cul-de-sac, waiting for the sky to speak

Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?

Row, row, row your boat gently through the clouds
Merrily does not depend on the happening
Life is but a roundabout
Row, row, row your boat gently through the clouds
Merrily does not depend on the happening
Life is but a round, is but a round, is but a roundabout

Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the-

Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
Are we finally off the hook, tell me are we off the hook?
