it's a little uncanny - conor oberst lyrics

Loading...

you started drinking the kool aid
we were taking the bait
we were talking big talk
never playing it safe
looking good as jane fonda
on a vietnam tape
you can’t get something for nothing
you’ve got to energize your face

but she was young enough
she was blonde enough
she was about a perfect ten
millions of smilers but not a single friend
it’s a little uncanny what she managed to do
became a symbol for a pain she never knew

you know old ronnie reagan
he was a shoe salesman’s son
he got himself in the movies
he impressed everyone
he got trial by fire
it was america’s fate
he made a joke of the poor people
and that made him a saint

he was tan enough he was rich enough
he was handsome like john wayne
there was no one at the country club
who didn’t feel the same

but it was a little uncanny
what he imagined to do
to read those russian authors through and through

i miss cristopher hitchens
i miss oliver sachs
i miss poor robin williams
i miss sylvia plath
every night is a desert
every night is a flood
they say a party can kill you
well sometimes i wish it would

but i get strong enough and i’m man enough
to keep myself in check
because all of my friends who screw the town
say that’s what they expect

it’s a little uncanny what they managed to do
make me a mentorship that they knew was never true
