The Pipe

Jackie said it's been a long time
And she's really not sure if she can make it to my play
Lilly, she's got something to hide
I hope it's gonna blow my mind
And Brittany loves the hell outta Elvis
She says, thank you very much
But we had our share of Kings
Well, everybody's reaching for the sky
Well, Johnny's got his jollies
But he's still got no control of his life
And I have no control of mine?

The association's coming apart
Well everybody's paying, but there's nothing so far
People staying up all night
Getting off their chests what's weighing on their minds
(?) says he's breaking up the band
He can't handle his booze and he
Threw a bloody lip at me
Now he says he's living for God
But is the guy upstairs the one
Who's really running your life?
And who is really running mine?

Try to live your life with a fly
But be ready for whatever
Comes rushing down the pipe into your life
Now watch out, 'cause here it comes
Rushing down the pipe
Rushing down the pipe into your life
Rushing down the pipe into your life
Rushing down the pipe into your life
Rushing down the pipe into your life

Rushing down the pipe into your life
Why why why why why?
Rushing down the pipe into your life
