[ti:Daniel Cowman] [ar:Regina Spektor] [00:30.138]On the day that Daniel Cowman stopped existing [00:34.04]The world should have ended right then and there [00:36.821]At precisely four-fifteen when he stopped existing [00:40.806]The world should have ended [00:42.521]How could it go on? [00:44.286]How could it go on? [00:45.999]How could it go on? [00:47.718]Oh and I don't exist [00:49.381]I don't exist repeats] [00:59.785]So now that we've got that straight [01:02.867]Doesn't mean that I can fly [01:04.381]Doesn't mean I that I can go do whatever I want. [01:07.64]Now that we've got that clear [01:10.556]And you know that I'm not here [01:11.975]Doesn't mean that I can go do whatever I please. [01:14.514]The premature ejaculation of his death [01:17.910](something)hit Daniel in the face like a big round spitball hwk-pfffff. [01:21.53]And everything got hazy in the courtroom and then he stood up [01:26.459]And then he sat back down another two times in the row. [01:31.169]And everything got real slow like a gunshot in the movies [01:34.406]And he remembered heroin boy walking in through the door [01:37.795]Bouncing off the walls and the floor [01:39.473]Taking off his belt taking off his pants [01:40.643]Filling up the bathtub [01:41.553]Getting ready to go in for a swim. [01:45.692]Singing I don't exist [01:47.806]I don't exist repeats] [01:49.642]And now that we've got that straight, [02:04.869]Doesn't mean that I can fly [02:06.793]Doesn't mean that I can go do whatever I want. [02:09.67]Now that we've got that clear [02:12.50]And you know that I'm not here [02:14.284]Doesn't mean that I can go do whatever I please. [02:16.813]And you start remembering and remembering and remembering [02:20.808]And remembering... [02:28.128]The heroin boy,he walked through the door, [02:31.613]And he was screaming [02:32.467]And I was like 'why's you screaming like it's the end of the world?' [02:35.237]And he was like 'well it is.' [02:36.904]And I was sitting in the corner with my pants down [02:41.907]And I was sure that someone next door was blowing up balloons [02:45.282]And it was red and orange. [02:47.414]And there was that swell lady at the bar just tryin to buy gin [02:53.223]And there was this other lady at the bar and she was tryin to sell gin [02:57.197]It worked out good for the boths of them. [02:59.830]And heroin boy started taking off his belt, [03:05.989]Started taking off his pants, [03:07.109]Started taking off his shoes [03:08.665]Started filling up the bathtub [03:10.346]Getting ready to go in for a swim [03:12.815]I says "No-o. [03:14.183]You're goin to drown. [03:20.701]He says 'No, [03:24.31]I can't drown. [03:27.260]Simply because... [03:34.271]Shhhhhhh. [03:37.603]A man destined to hang [03:39.620]Can never drown, [03:40.731]A man destined to hang [03:42.651]Can never drown, [03:44.114]A man destined to hang [03:46.174]Can never ever drown. [03:51.197]A man destined to drown [03:54.234]Can never burn, [03:54.888]A man destined to drown [03:56.01]Can never burn, [03:57.257]A man destined to drown [03:58.951]Can never ever burn. [04:03.517]A man destined to fry [04:06.698]Can never ever ever [04:07.659]A man destined to fry [04:10.541]Can never ever ever [04:12.254]A man destined to fry [04:13.746]Can never ever ever die... [04:19.205]In any other way but frying, [04:23.641]Lucky that I'm dying [04:26.325]By hanging and not drowning. [04:32.695]So now that we've got that straight [04:34.113]Can't I just be left alone? [04:36.35]I want to take a fuckin'bath
