about

In regards to Mike's report about Eluna is that she wore these like military bomber jackets with patches and he compared her to Jimi Hendrix and I was like you do you wanna f- you there's a Swedish person who reminds you of Jimi Hendrix and you want to fuck them. And he was like "What? I dunno, maybe"

lyrics

Mike wants to fuck Eluna
He probably shoulda told me sooner
He makes me feel like I'm a lunatic sometimes
But I don't really care

My eyes are shit 'cause of computers
It makes the homeless boys look cuter
Nobody's ever in the mood to spare a dime
'Cause they don't really care

And so I make like James Mercer
And write another verse about how
Caring is creepy and why all the people that do it are clearly insane
Channel my Dave Longstreth
And write another song expressing
Why I won't heat up my heart 'til it beats up a storm
'Cause who wants it to rain
When the drought's so warm and dry
And I don't really care

The polar bears will all be gone soon
The bombs are on their way from Kim Jong Un
Our president's a fucking cartoon character
And I don't really care

Every headline now is bad news
Every day's another sad truth
And all I think about's what tattoo I'll get next
And sex and drugs because who cares

And so I make like James Mercer
And write another verse about how
Caring is creepy and why all the people that do it are clearly insane
Channel my Dave Longstreth
And write another song expressing
Why I won't heat up my heart 'til it beats up a storm
'Cause who wants it to rain
When the drought's so warm and dry

I think the trick is not to think too much
The other trick is just to drink too much
Or lie back and sink into your own touch
Call it a little self-care

I put tequila in my coffee
Go on somebody try and stop me
Or bring me home and prop me up
And make sure I don't die
Or don't, I don't really care
I don't care
I don't care
