lyrics

I saw it coming miles away
Under the bleachers as a teenager
Old Age
And the endless failures
A chip on both shoulders
A heart full of dirt

For all the people
bouncing through life
So pure and positively
Ever wonder what happens
To people like me?

Here comes the point of no return
Yeah who in their right mind walks around backwards?

Point of no return
Yeah who in their right mind walk around backwards?

Tiny Chinese ladies
Rollin’
Collecting cans
from the garbage cans
Giggle at my grand delusions
Entitlements
Why should they understand?

I’m a walking parody
For the
many ways
I’ve callously
Escaped the hands that could crush me

Here comes the point of no return
Yeah who in their right mind walks around backwards?

Point of no return
Yeah who in their right mind walk around backwards?

(Spoken)
Why walk when the people have shat all over life’s lonely highway?

(Sung)
I guess I’m the just jester that molests through it my way

No one needs to know
why I
wake up and where I go
No one needs to know where I’ve gotta be

Here’s comes the point of no return
Yeah who in their right mind walks around backwards?

Point of no return
Yeah who in their right mind walks around backwards? (repeat)
