Joyride! (SF) - Social Studies lyrics

I'll learn the history of the world some time before february and i'll take small steps as i go, i am cautionary. i'll read yesterday's news, the stories they never change. i could save seventy-five cents but i like to check it just the same. you'll follow a concrete path past buildings that are built to last. you know we're not made of steel, we're not quite as secure as that. head down a marked off map directing you through the years and you'll sleep soundly on mattresses and sleeping pills. i'll learn the history of the world sometime before february and i'll take small steps as i go, i am so ordinary. i'll look at myself in reflective surfaces as i walk home past parked cars and storefront windows. my heart is heavy, my head is full of thoughts you're probably better off not to know
