Playing Along

Alejandro Rose-Garcia, Cameron Neal, Dan Creamer, Matt Pence, Patrick O'Connor, Taylor Craft

Pretend life is a game
Don't know the rules, don't mean a thing
Do your worst, do whatever it takes
Still pickin' up speed
Still pumpin' the brakes

Driving home with one eye closed
Mama don't approve of the life I chose
Who knows if it's right or wrong?
Who cares, I'm just playing along

Pray-tell, I'm dying to know
What do you think I ought to do with my soul?
Higher education got me feeling low
Papa always wanted the life I chose
Light up a candle, I want to believe
Loch Ness, Bigfoot, Kennedy
Stars and Stripes, America strong
JK LOL, we're just playing along

I can't believe it's happening, I'm tired of most everything
I'm happily and tragically sadder than the younger me
The older me is cackling, it's all become a parody
It must be living happily everly and afterly
Choking on economy, dastardly and drastically
Comically and casually, cavalier and formerly
Creature of the century, prettier in poverty
Fattening in luxury, clap along and sing with me
