your temporary custodian - john congleton and the nighty nite lyrics

[verse 1]
would protestors still gush to city center
if the universe would honk b-flat and halt?
would cop cars still be rushing to their crime scenes?
would farmers drop their seeds or drop their salts?
and then there’s me, your temporary custodian
of these particles and free floating radicals
that convene for 80 years or so, that’s if i’m lucky tho
never been very lucky though
what an extraordinary thing it is to be this ordinary thing
a phenomenal nominal nominal nominal nothing

[chorus]
this is what it’s like… we will not be saved
we went looking for the sublime, we find only the inane
this is what we are… and we will not be changed
we can look for unseen order
you’re gonna find that chaos reigns
we will not be saved

[verse 2]
so when my carc-ss finds itself a mishap
but i avoid the room with center drains
the doctor will remove my dressing and cast
to a room that falls sin silent mouths aghast
they’ve seen nothing but the product of a billion years
of evolution’s deliverance… you’d think i’d act like it
may i feed the flora fauna once when all my feeding’s done
this zoo of bacterium
what an extraordinary thing it is to be this ordinary thing

[chorus]
this is what it’s like… we will not be saved
we went looking for the sublime, we find only the inane
this is what we are… and we will not be changed
you can look for unseen order
you’re gonna find that chaos reigns
we will not be saved

[post-chorus]
just let go, just let go
we will not be saved
just let go, just let go
we will not be saved
just let go, just let go

[outro]
if a tree falls in the woods, it doesn’t matter
just let go, just let go
what’s the sound of one hand clapping? it doesn’t matter
just let go, just let go
is it the chicken or the egg? it doesn’t matter
just let go, just let go
what can you do when you do nothing? it doesn’t matter
it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter
just let go, just let go, just let go
just let go, just let go, just let go
just let go, just let go, just let go
just let go, just let go, just let go
just let go, just let go, just let go
