Wrote this completely pissed
Still am
Enjoy and critique
Invasions of the legal kind
Tried all my life to scream my way
Out of this gray and empty tomb
Until I found out that I could sing
But the bricks they still did not move
I can't sing like the fiftys
I love it but it's not the times
Now we all scream and sing about
Invasions of the legal kind
All my life, I've tried to make someone proud
I've worked my ass off and wrote some songs
Then again made some mistakes like an idiot
Trying my best not to let anybody down
I can't sing like the fiftys
I love it but it's not the times
Now we all scream and sing about
Invasions of the legal kind
I stare blindly at my bright expensive phone
Looking for a cheap source of self assurance
Wishing for something to show that I'm not alone
It's a good job I took the nice mans insurance
I can't sing like the fiftys
I love it but it's not the times
Now we all scream and sing about
Invasions of the legal kind
I've been looking for a silly heaven
Or at least somewhere over the border
Where hell in my head doesn't scream
And I can harbor fantasys of moving on
I can't sing like the fiftys
I love it but it's not the times
Now we all scream and sing about
Invasions of the legal kind
Numbers lead to my bank account
Which tells me how much I can drink
If it's not a lot I listen to music sober
Alone so that I can just think
I can't sing like the fiftys
I love it but it's not the times
Now we all scream and sing about
Invasions of the legal kind
