Conor Oberst - Desert Island Questionnaire Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Say that you were stranded on a desert island
  • What books you gonna bring what friends would tag along
  • Say you had a month and you knew you were dying
  • How would you spend your time
  • What goodbyes would take too long
  • You don't like this game and you take exception
  • Who wants all this trouble even hypothetical
  • With the charging sky above
  • And the ground below that could swallow everyone
  • Staring at your phone at another party
  • Spend a lot on clothes got a lot of skin to show
  • People in the pool like the drowning army
  • Smoke along the moats and the hotel lobby glows
  • Wish that you can dance but you've got no partner
  • Keep tapping on your glass because you want to make a toast
  • To the ennui of our times
  • To the selfishness in everyone you know
  • Made a lot of friends but they can't be trusted
  • Don't know what their angle is
  • Post up at the bar and I’m double fisted
  • Talking to a mannequin
  • I don't know what it means when he takes my pulse
  • And says that I'm a lot like him
  • I say that's fair enough that's why I'm trying to loosen up
  • Every lunatic must be well intentioned
  • Sets himself apart he's an instrument of god
  • Took her from the playground to the farmhouse cellar
  • Kissed her while he killed her like a good Samaritan
  • They finally found her body many Autumns after
  • Interviewed her mother who said she'd now be 21
  • And although we lost her young
  • I know the good lord has a plan for all of us
  • Mormons at the door they are clean and handsome
  • Always have a good sales pitch
  • Your little sisters swears that she can take my order
  • But I can't take her serious
  • Need something to bring
  • For this human nature is not what this condition is
  • I'm so bored with my life but I'm still afraid to die
  • Everyone's asleep in this burning building
  • And I can't wake them up in time
  • You go on ahead I'll be right behind you
  • I'm headed to the finish line
  • I can't ignore the sun until this is over
  • Pretend that you were stranded on a desert island
  • What would be the message that you'd spell out for the plane
  • Say the engine failed when that plane was flying
  • If you were the pilot would you curse or would you pray
  • No one's gonna cry at this John Doe funeral
  • Not a lot to say did it even have a name
  • Light a candle just in case he was someone's friend
  • Throw some flowers on the grave
