I Choose

Offspring

   
1. Look at me I'm fallin' Off of a cliff now
   I can still hear my mama yelling No No No
   But the words mean nothing
   Can't catch up to me now
   And the view is so beautiful
   All the way down
                
   When I was a little boy
   Believing my perceptions were oh so real
   But I don't know nothing
   Still knowing nothing
   Was just enough for me to know the way I feel

R: This is life 
   What a fucked up thing we do
   What a nightmare come true
   Or a playground if we choose
   And I choose


2. Look at me I'm swollen
   Like a banana fish now
   I'm never gonna make it out of my hole
   But I keep on laughing
   Doesn't really matter
   There's dozens of reasons for explaining my soul
                 
   When I was a teenager
   Suckin' booze with the Vatos
   Discussing who was gonna live to be 21
   They said they wouldn't make it
   They didn't make it
   We're all naked when the day is said and done

R: This is life...

*: Don't know who made this all come true
   But now while you're here
   You just gotta do what you gotta do
    
2. Now if I wasn't such a weenie
   Do you think you'd still love me
   Pretending I'm an airplane on the living
   Room floor
   But like a lovely generator
   You stand right by me
   And if words were wisdom I'd be talking
   Even more
               
   So I keep on falling
   As I'm looking back above me
   Watching as my mama just becomes a little dot
   Now I'm like DeNiro
   I'm amarillo
   And I'll never know when I hit the ground
