"Picnic" lyrics

"Picnic"

Now woke up on a Sunday and got started once again
In the wings, the moon was waiting and the burning sun was spent
We went walking through the park with bolar in hats and aspirations
Down between the dying roses and the friendly basket cases

Come along
Come along

We had a picnic on the hill where we passed the fifth between us
And she said to me, "The claim that you've unmasked the myth don't mean much
Your tired pose is not the happiness we dreamed of"
But the grass, it surely grows as I amass the misdemeanors

Come along
Come along

Now, now, yesterday's escaping and I thought you'd understand
That your faith is no replacement for them dollars you've condemned
You're playing to coincidence, she's saying to the simpletons
Why don't you go on and get out while you can?

Come along

I don't know much, love, but I know just who I am
Why don't you go on, go on, go on, get out, get out while you can
I know just who I am
And I know just who I am
