lyrics

put all my money in the bank
collected my change
listened to it jangle 'round my pocket all day
very ominously
then I stand in line
I play the keno, play the horse race, play the lottery
man I gave
that is when I gave

stacked some books on the top of my head
not too many
just enough to prevent passage
through my own conventional doorway
so I started to have to bend my legs
that is when I gave

that's when I gave
man I knew I would give soon
man I knew I'd buckle
I'd yield
I would yield
I would preformeth the ritual

put all of my eggs into one basket
this girl she claimed she could save my soul
and make me into a good person
and I thought for a while I could maybe go along with it
erase some things I did
balance karmic spirits
so I gave
that is when I gave

then I watched all of my plants die real slowly
I forgot that perennials, annuals, biennials
camouflage themselves as regular looking
I waited for their return
but they never returned again
that is when I gave

that is when I gave
man I knew I would give soon
man I knew I'd buckle
I'd yield
I would yield
I would preformeth the ritual
