Tonight I bury Old William without remorse Because Hell sleeps around and Heaven wants a divorce Tonight I burn my bookshelf to be free Because even a rebel tradition is slavery Tonight I bake my madness a birthday cake Because even the insomniacs aren't awake Tonight I burn my home while they ??? ??? ??? So tomorrow I can live like I died yesterday, Live like I died yesterday
Today a stampede killed Superman And Apollo and Dionysus both got hanged Today the revolution laughed and spit in my face But all-expenses-paid Dada will take its place Today the dropouts were smarter than the PhDs As they took off with everyone's car without the keys Today I bled failure all the way up to the sky And I grinned hopelessly as I sit down to die, As I sit down to die
