Ian McNally - The Story of Everyone I Know Lyrics

All these faces have
So much to share
I want to know it all
But sadly that'd just be weird

All these lively brains Standing in front of me
I want to hug them all but Sadly that's impossible

And when the hickory slips
You'' be severed and minced
It's all trickery shit
Even the pop stand thats Ready always watches for Slippery kids

So take a million hits
Until the hickory clicks
Until you gotta be kidding me Type starts
To call on your kids with no Fibs now

Well
I've never met a single guy
Who didn't once at least try
To fly higher than he seemed Intended in gods eye
But i think you keep forgetting You're letting
Your dreams die

And when we run into any Dead ends or dead friends set On high
We die inside
(Eat this!)
I think I spend all of my life
Trying to get by all the time

I really wanna go back to the Back of the line
But I have seen so much
People are just like animals With more intelligence and Love
And just a little bit of bluff
Just still enough
To fool each other out of Whether the weather is still Rough and
It's not

So i think that your shot
Is really dependent on
Whether you think spending Your
Ending on befriending god
Even makes sense

Cause if he put you here
It's not like what you did was Meant
To disappear

All these people
In the corner sides of both my Eyes
I wish I would turn my head
But they look like they don't have the time

We have all evolved
To be insecure and nice
Well Guess our genetic code
Should be more open to advice

All these people
Just standing
In front of me
This is
The story of
Every single man I know

So they wake up and they're Like
Right
Guess I'm gonna have to claw And bite to survive
And fight to survive

I really wanna night with a Girl as a guy
And a night with a guy as a girl
(I mean I assume)
Or whatever suits your fancy
Fancy this
Fancy that
My philosophies in tact
And nothing could break that
Nothing could shake that
Nothing could ever make me Change my ways
Or make me mistake that

All these faces
Just passing my sentient goo
They're looking for some type Of cute
Sadly I'm looking too

All these people
Giving unsolicited advice
I wish that they'd just shut up
Cause I'm feeling so Ill advised

And when the hickory slips
You'll be dead as a finch
You cant get ahead
It's a bitch
But
You'll be read like a book
By a million immortal fans

And no kids now
One bridge out
You better be living your Limits cause if you're living With in it
Then you'll finish in a minute
You can try and try to spin it But
You'll never really live in a Finished beginning

In a million billion trillion Years
A quadrillion fears
Couldn't possibly disappear
Even If we start here
Never ever looked back
We'd only slow our backs
While the snowballs blow our racks out

In a fast and loose sort of way
Everyday
Is just another cog in the Corporate machine
Sucking the soul outta my Brain
Sucking the coal outta the Train
Sucking the end outta the pain
When will it end

The rain coming down means Nothing
The insane coming abound Means one thing
Instead of insidious bumbling And stumbling around
On that capital hill
We'll call their cap and storm The mast but unified as a Shield
And they'll finally reel over How real they feel
We have all evolved
To be insecure and nice
But they try to keep us down So
We can never unionize

(Thanks for listening)
