The Golden Dogs - Painting Ape lyrics

Down the halls of mediocrity The echoes of insanity Falling down, the fools are laughing They know the reason they can't be happy now Great, what does it mean to be great - To feel like it everyday In the land of second places The rule of thumb is try not to say it Just hold your tongue and say it nicely You change the subject ever so politely now True, what does it mean to be true - Feeling your point of view Work, keep working on it Work, keep working on it Sometimes it could feel just like we're almost done Endless streams of repetition It looks like we're all wishing for something different Paint your brain a thousand colors when every color outside is black and white Paint your brain a thousand colors when every color outside is black and white Paint your brain a thousand colors when every color outside is black and white Paint your brain a thousand colors when every color outside is black and white We don't know which way we're really going Wait, I know the right way Please, just wait a second Stop, shut up the children I know where I am
