Easy/Lucky/Free by Bright Eyes -------------- Did it all get real? I guess it's real enough They got refrigerators full of blood Another century spent pointing guns At anything that moves Sometimes I worry that I've lost the plot My twitching muscles tease my flippant thoughts I never really dreamed of heaven much Until we put him in the ground But it's all I'm doing now Listening for patterns in the sound Of an endless static sea But once a satellite's deceased It blows like garbage through the streets Of the night sky to infinity
But don't you weep (don't you weep for them) There is nothing as lucky Don't you weep There is nothing as lucky, as easy, or free
Don't be a criminal in this police state You better shop and eat and procreate You got vacation days then you might escape To a condo on the coast I set my watch to the atomic clock I hear the crowd count down 'til the bomb gets dropped I always figured there'd be time enough I never let it get me down But I can't help it now Looking for faces in the clouds I got some friends I barely see But we're all planning to meet We'll lay in bags as dead as leaves All together for eternity
But don't you weep There is no one as lucky Honey, don't you weep There is nothing as lucky, as easy, or free
