Craig Finn - No Future lyrics

rate me

By the way that you picked up the phone

I could tell that you weren't gonna die

February's about as long as it is wide

I guess that I've been getting pretty good with it

Trying hard not to get too obsessed with it

I guess I shouldn't've been surprised

I guess that I was pretty much prepared for it,

I was just stuck in my own sense of time

Rigid and depressed, needy, halfway-pissed and resigned

Parking lots and the office talk

Then punch my card at the coffee shop

Pretty sure we're all gonna die

Pretty sure we're all gonna die

I suppose you thought that I'd be shaken up

I suppose you thought I'd be gushing blood

Not true, I only died on the inside

I suppose you thought that I'd be taken out

Back behind one of those bars downtown

Not true, I'm still alive on the outside

Good old Freddy Mercury's the only guy that advises me

And this time he said if you can't beat'em join'em

And I've been reading bout the Calvary

The crucifixion still gets to me

I guess Golgotha meets the mount of execution

Best advice that I've ever gotten was from good old Johnny Rotten

He said "God save the Queen"

He said "no future for you, no future for me"

I suppose you thought that I'd be eaten up by the bars and the pigs or the sheep or the studs

I'm alive except for the inside

I suppose you thought that I'd be the first one to go by the bars or the pigs or the sheep or the shows

I'm alive except for the inside

But I don't know nothing

Except for one thing for certain

The devil's a person

I met him at the riverside Perkins

Bedsheets for curtains

One thing's for certain

The devil's a person

Met him at the riverside Perkins

Bedsheets for curtains
