lyrics

Oh I've driven for miles
and took every back road
through earthquakes and while hurricanes hit us
Learned that everything is suffering and everyone's cold
can't escape the sad inherent in us

But I'm going to where everyone's comfortable
with drop menu weather as climate control
cause life is better with no surprise
I'm off the paradise

If my lazy days there make me dumb, I don't care
we'll have everything provided for us
Darling don't let your stress leave you crippled to death
come along, better health's waiting for us

Cause I'm going to where everyone smiles a lot
genetically altered however you want
cause I'd look better with golden eyes
I'm off to paradise

Oh I've heard of a shot you can take when you're not
feeling ultra content with the daydreams you've got
but our one saving grace- not a cure, but a place
and I long to be saved by whatever it takes

So I'm going to where everyone's equally free
cause everyone's given the same exact things
where no one gets lonely cause friends are assigned
I'm off to paradise...
