Lyrics
On the curb again
On the curb again
Ive come to learn at least its firm
Out on the curb again
Hook
Im in my room making cardboard castles
with shoestring rope
Soup spoon drawbridge
tinfoil moat
Im still dreaming after all these years
(x2)
Verse 1
because if we dont build it who will?
I do things on a shoestring that you couldnt do for a cool mil
I run with no laces
And when I fall I start
to build my Taj Mahal with shit I found at dollarmart
this lifes our greatest project
the journeys all an art
But I built my perfect nest
And its bout to fall apart
Again and again and then I just I make it twice as high
And I give my tower teeth
And I watch it bite the sky
Because I might just cry if I dont keep it moving
I focus on what I can make and not what just got ruined
Cause every stone will crumble down to dust to to dust (it must)
And I say love thy neighbor
And I say fuck thy hater
There s nothing I cant solve with duct tape and construction paper
I dont want a band aid, Ill only rip it off
Chorus
Verse 2
I know someday Ill pass
And maybe then rest
Im laying on my back
Heavens my bench press
Cause my imagination is crazy as Glenn Beck
A cloud is floating by in the shape of a rent check
And when the world ends, thats what Ill plan towards
Then Ill trust girlfriends and maybe landlords
Cause I been played but Im looking for more
I say, what would I gain if took it to court
Cause if, If people were perfect then there wouldnt be war
we stay pushing but once we get a foot in the door
we get our toes chopped off
and a foot of manure
I still gotta believe people are good at the core
cause if we werent, whats at stake
why would we stay to break what we make
And create all these beautiful mistakes
when they blow our house down lets draw on the walls")
