lyrics

Sunshine chased you out of bed. Break down, and put it on your back. Home keeps blowing through toll booth, stop sign, identifying, hard to be transient in modern times. What with all them tracking things-- I don't wanna die in a submarine.
Queen bee held you for awhile, but restless wings ain't cut out for a hive. And home keeps buzzing by telephone, wifi, satellite, hard to be transient in modern times. What with all them tracking things-- I don't wanna die in a submarine.
And I heard about your fall. They cuffed you in a four-lane stall. And in the cell you kept on singing, "high tide, falling sky, fourth reich, genocide, hard to be transient in modern times. What with all them tracking things-- I don't wanna die in a submarine. Born with my own air to breathe, not to die in a submarine."
