Bats Over The Pacific Ocean

I got evicted from my house 
all my shit's on the lawn 
everything I've owned since I was a baby 
turning grey in the sun. 
I found a picture of my mother 
when she was just 17 
looking wild and glamorous at a party 
laughing about to scream. 
So I flew to Australia 
on a flamingo's back, 
the Pacific Ocean was dreaming of angels 
with the wings of a bat. 
It was six in the morning 
the sun was just coming up, 
everybody getting out of the subways 
going out to their jobs. 

Happy new year Antoine 
I'm fucked up bad but I'll be fine soon I'm sure 
and we can run the streets and scream like jaguars, 
because liars own the world. 

I got evicted from this song, 
oh my voice is deformed, 
exotic islands and new species of animals 
is all I'm writing for. 
I found a picture of my brother 
when he was just 17 
jet-black hair on his first tour ever 
totally hung over. 
So I joined the marines 
just to travel the world, 
Afghanistan was dreaming of Miss America 
McDonald's tits grotesque smirk. 
But I still missed my hometown 
so I had to desert, 
everybody driving around in hummers 
driving their parents speed boats. 

Happy new year mamma 
the static in my head could scar that girl 
disfigure baby birds and maul the TV 
because the liars own the world.
