It's Kind of Funny

Jack Symes on Audiotree Live
I climbed a mountain
Looked off the side
Saw my hometown
All green and white
My parents love it
I think that's true
Myself I truly hate it
And the kids i like do too

The folks are phony
And judge a whole lot
They say I look like Jesus
In my Birkenstocks
But I guess that's kind of funny
Comparing me to the savior of man

I guess that's kind of funny
Oh, I guess that's kind of funny

I slept real hard these last few months
That melatonin knocks me out
And I love it so much!
My peace of candy for sleepy time
Makes me dream all kind of crazy shit
Like this one last night:

I was a helper on a Hollywood movie
It was a sci-fi flick starring Oprah
And George Clooney
Director's pissed cause Clooney can't get his line
She's out of cigarettes
So she asks me for one of mine

"These things'll kill ya
But fuck it I'll race ya"
She stopped what she's doing
No she dropped her clipboard and said
"you got exactly what i'm looking for
Clooney's out, you're in!
This kid's gonna be a star!"

The Hollywood scene fades
I'm older now, ten years to the day
I'm sitting with Madonna and Bono
At the Apollo, and not the venue
The rocket-ship, we're taking off to mars
Said they want their best and brightest
Start a new world, make all sorts of babies
And lead all those boys and girls
But Madonna's almost 60
Bono's even older
What the fuck I'm doing here?
The melatonin got me good

Oh, I guess that's kind of funny
Oh, I guess that's kind of funny
