"El Paso" lyrics

"El Paso"

Go get your space, man, you don't want an alien
Reading your mail again, lifting the veil again
Feelings are gated, but came highly rated
'Cause you take bad news like you're shooting up heroin

So why don't you feel very well?
Yeah, why don't you feel very well?
Oh, why don't you feel very well?

How can you say that we're okay, baby?
Who wants to live like this?
I can't relax between the cracks, baby
Who wants to live like this?
Can't live like this, can't live like this
Who wants to live like this?
Can't live like this, can't live like this
Who wants to live like this?

We're good news junkies, so play that shit funky
And give us some more isms, four-on-the-floor-ism
We come from the heartland and don't even start, man
The land of enlightened, we're all so damn frightened

That's why
Why you don't feel very well
Why don't you feel very well?
Yeah, why don't you feel very well?

How can you say that we're okay, baby?
Who wants to live like this?
I can't relax between the cracks, baby
Who wants to live like this?
Can't live like this, can't live like this
Who wants to live like this?
Can't live like this, can't live like this
Who wants to live like this?

You'll see me in the morning on a nylon string guitar
Tryna pick a sad song in the corner of the bar
Concrete feelings, the weight of caviar
The Sistine ceiling is coming down on us all

How can you say that we're okay, baby?
Who wants to live like this?
I can't relax between the cracks, baby
Who wants to live like this?
Can't live like this, can't live like this
Who wants to live like this?
Can't live like this, can't live like this
Who wants to live like this?
