lyrics

If could do without the internet
And fade into the transcendental web that connects us all
Well I would do so in a second, though
First I really ought to take this call
The pope texted me, he said, “Doug, do you want to hang out tonight?”

From a window I watch Vatican plains
Dangle a cross while the cardinals graze
If no one will chill, then how can I chill?

My chances of making a living wage have decreased dramatically
Long before I was born, men made it so, it's modern history
Don't you think I ought not to care so much, yeah maybe, ah maybe
While I still got it, got to use that magic touch to make somebody else happy

The pope texted me
Do you want to hang out tonight?
