[00:00.926]	I got drunk and fell asleep atop the sheets
[00:07.804]	But luckily, I left the heater on
[00:12.683]	And in my dreams, I wrote the best song that I've ever written
[00:16.373]	Can't remember how it goes
[00:20.433]	I stayed drunk and fell awake; I was cycling on a plane
[00:24.845]	And far away I heard you say you liked me
[00:28.833]	We drifted to a party, cool; the people went to arty school
[00:32.791]	They made their paints by mixing acid wash and lemonade
[00:36.612]	In my brain, I rearrange
[00:40.139]	The letters on the page to spell your name
[00:45.000]	I found an Ezra Pound and made a bet
[00:47.699]	That if I found a cigarette, I'd drop it all and marry you
[00:52.826]	Just then a song comes on: "You can't always get what you want"
[00:56.448]	The Rolling Stones, oh, woe is we, the irony
[01:00.822]	The stones became the moss and once all inhibition's lost
[01:04.267]	The hipsters made a mission to the farm
[01:08.724]	We drove by tractor there; the yellow straw replaced our hair
[01:12.917]	We laced the dairy river with the cream of sweet vermouth
[01:16.617]	In my brain, I rearrange
[01:20.206]	The letters on the page to spell your name
[01:25.111]	You said, "We only live once," so we touched a little tongue
[01:28.493]	And instantly, I wanted to
[01:32.996]	I lost my train of thought and jumped aboard the Epping
[01:36.498]	As the doors were slowly closing on the world
[01:41.042]	I touched on and off and rubbed my arm up against yours
[01:44.559]	And still, the inspector inspected me
[01:49.110]	The lady in the roof was living proof
[01:51.665]	That nothing really ever is exactly as it seems
[01:56.658]	In my brain, I rearrange
[02:00.261]	The letters on the page to spell your name
[02:04.995]	We caught the riverboat downstream
[02:07.075]	And ended up beside a team of angry footballers
[02:13.103]	I fed the ducks some krill then we were sucked against our will
[02:16.666]	Into the welcome doors of the casino
[02:20.559]	We drank green margaritas, danced with sweet señoritas
[02:24.977]	And we all went home as winners of a kind
[02:28.635]	You said, "I guarantee we'll have more fun
[02:31.546]	Drink 'til the moon becomes the sun
[02:33.035]	And in the taxi home, I'll sing you a Triffids song"
[02:37.090]	In my brain, I rearrange
[02:40.457]	The letters on the page to spell your name

[00:00.926]	I got drunk and fell asleep atop the sheets
