[Verse 1] When I was in 7th grade I put kids in three categories Sports kids, smart kids, social kids Some kids played football well and were dumb and ugly And some kids got great grades And their only friends were their pens And there were others that danced among us There were others that danced among us And made us all look like the kids we were They were big, daring, s**ual I wasn't much in any of the categories But in high school, I met Sterling And I had something [Verse 2] At this one party, I was drunk and so was everyone else The sofas and the chairs were floating And the people were shifting in their spheres I sat on a couch and took a ride Through a door to the kitchen, I saw a circus Plenty of colors: red and yellow, white There were few ringmasters barking out things And some lions in green letterman jackets And this huge black seal Bonking down on this one guy, Ivan Bouncing him, like he was a ball of air Until Ivan was slouched halfway to the [?] One of the others hit him on the crown with a frying pan Like a cartoon, Ivan went all the way down and laid flat Sterling was on the side of it all, pouring foamy, piss-colored beer All over Ivan's pale and bloody face Laughing his electric eel grin with his shark, dart teeth On the car ride home, he drove us drunk through the dark Like a boat on a flat, starless sea (done, done, done, done, done, done, done, done) (done, done, done, done, done, done, done, done) [Chorus] On the car ride home He drove us drunk Through the dark Like a boat On a flat Starless sea On the car ride home He drove us drunk Through the dark Like a boat On a flat Starless sea
