[00:00.54] Schoolin' (Live) - Everything Everything
[00:02.28]
[00:19.87] Mahal
[00:20.91] One colossal dome above you
[00:22.19] And the smell of something other
[00:23.30] A pillar and a scimitar
[00:25.11] A little
[00:25.79]
[00:27.46] Yes I miss you like a formless hide
[00:29.57] Stretching over me and dangled
[00:30.85] From the coastguard in a chopper
[00:31.88] The scaffold of me all awry
[00:33.89] A little
[00:34.51]
[00:36.17] Broke your shoulder on the library steps
[00:38.21] Hanging 'round there in the dark
[00:39.44] Just doing nothing or whatever
[00:40.37] What do you mean you saw the stars
[00:42.65] You little
[00:43.28]
[00:44.97] I could write it in a murder font
[00:46.92] I could say it in a way that would be lying or whatever
[00:49.35] I don't want them to tell us apart
[00:50.98]
[00:54.07] You say that I'm an overlord
[00:55.35]
[00:56.46] I've got myself a fire hydrant with more tyrant
[00:59.14] In watery blasts then all of my past
[01:01.58]
[01:02.72] You seen me on the bridge a lot
[01:04.73] But I never leapt over the pent upper
[01:07.15]
[01:07.93] My number is up my number is up
[01:09.96] But infinite and joyless little high fives are singing
[01:12.31] "Praise the lord"
[01:13.40]
[01:14.04] And "Pitter patter this schooling
[01:15.55] Is this schooling "
[01:16.34] And "You matter not and you matter not"
[01:18.67] And is it the flogging of a Flintstone
[01:20.35] That I'm supposed to be
[01:22.83] The cerebellum get schoolin' and no schoolin'
[01:25.30] The drummer goes on the drama goes on
[01:27.68]
[01:38.19] And I don't wanna make a scene
[01:39.99] I don't wanna think about the 3rd world hunger or whatever
[01:43.06] 'Cause thinking always comes across
[01:44.23] A little
[01:45.02]
[01:46.27] There's a meeting of the worlds tonight
[01:48.65] Right above my head a miracle the sun erupt forever
[01:50.72] I barely ever raise my eyes
[01:53.06] A little
[01:53.69]
[01:55.52] And oh I wanna make the peace
[01:57.63] And God I gotta be on the train past the ruins the wall
[02:00.50] And the druids oh please
[02:02.96]
[02:04.27] I'm whining like a breaking bus
[02:06.28] Maybe I can sit here and do nothing clever with a laser
[02:08.59] I'm not about to open up
[02:12.09] You say that I'm an overlord
[02:14.86]
[02:15.56] I've got myself a fire hydrant
[02:17.12] With more tyrant
[02:18.27] In watery blasts then all of my past
[02:20.59]
[02:22.13] You seen me on the bridge a lot
[02:23.97] But I never leapt over the pent upper
[02:27.00] My number is up my number is up
[02:29.09] But infinite and joyless little high fives are singing
[02:30.60] "Praise the lord"
[02:32.55]
[02:33.14] And "Pitter patter this schooling
[02:33.99] Is this schooling " and
[02:36.07] "You matter not and you matter not"
[02:37.88] And is it the flogging of a Flintstone
[02:40.14] That I'm supposed to be
[02:41.92] The cerebellum get schoolin' and no schoolin'
[02:44.67] The drummer goes on
[02:45.76] The drama goes on
[02:46.76] The drummer goes on
[02:47.78] The drama goes on
[02:48.91] My number is up my number is up
[02:51.15]
[03:28.68] Earth I take a long time
[03:31.21] To learn about the big one
[03:34.04] Gorilla limb swipe and beat
[03:36.01] And I learn nil about
[03:37.33] Earth
[03:38.23] Remember how men
[03:39.80]
[03:40.44] Would understand the heavens
[03:42.83] But leaving those streetlights on
[03:44.46]
[03:45.23] You can't see nothing there
[03:46.93]
[03:51.43] But leaving those streetlings on
[03:53.67] You can't see nothing there
[03:56.01]
[04:03.73] Teach me something that works
[04:05.33]
[04:05.88] I take a long time
[04:07.24]
[04:08.06] To learn about the big one
[04:10.61] Gorilla limb swipe and beat
[04:12.52] And I learn dick about Earth
[04:14.78] Remember good men
[04:16.34]
[04:16.86] Would understand the heavens
[04:19.47] And leaving those streetlights on
[04:21.65] A ghost dark hemisphere Earth
[04:23.61]
[04:24.34] I take a long time
[04:26.04] To learn about the big one
[04:28.73] Gorilla limb swipe and beat
[04:30.89] And I learn dick about
[04:32.17] Earth
[04:33.18] Remember good man
[04:34.56]
[04:35.08] You understand the heavens
[04:37.58] But leaving those streetlights on
