Let's have a drink at the Mission Rock Watch the Oakland lights Across the dry dock Watch the blue, blue sky Darken like an inhalation Over the graveyard of ships And your conversation It's sad when you try and manipulate me It's sad 'cause I don't love you that way anymore You're worried if you remembered to use bleach on a needle Well so what So what So what So what So we sit and watch the planes take off from Oakland and circle gracefully In a sky so royal and blue They flash their lights like a j**el In some pretentious crown Then vanish forever
Hey, how's your Margarita? You won't be around very much longer And all talk is useless It only makes us seem clever While nothing changes While nothing changes Nothing changes Nothing changes Not ever If I could talk it out of you I would If I could beat it out of you I would But all I can do is Is follow stupidly behind And watch you walk To the ocean in your mind And there's always more Always more ties you could sever And nothing changes While nothing changes While nothing changes And nothing changes Not ever
