Intro

No one needs to tell me how to get (get get) down

But won't somebody show me how to get back up?

I thought about killing my landlord, but he was pretty nice

Instead I paid my rent on time as often as I could

I've been making strange friends in the desert, yeah

 They love Jesus, and America, too

It ain't as bad as it sounds, someday I'll explain it to you

x2

It's not that I mind sleeping all alone in the grass

It's just that I've been dreaming since ... well, maybe I ain't woke up yet

But nothing's been quite the same since you shot yourself

I don't know if you believed in ghosts, but I hope you'd haunt me if you were one

I've been trying not to steal from everybody I know

But so far that's impossible

But here in the desert, someday I hope that it won't

Be that way for me, no it won't

Be that way for me, anymore
