145 Poodles - Remix by Rich Colmer Lyrics
[Verse 1: Rich Colmer]
I hate haughty eyes, despise
145 poodles, Doin’ somethin’ right
I’d love to get in the business of selling lies
Because that’s the kinda shit everybody buys
Or maybe, I could just sell permission slips
Don’t like what you’re saying, now shut your lips
Backwards, retract, redact
Someone please let me take my own words back
Own words, own self
Do I own myself, or does someone else?
Pin pricks, slow drips
They group us together like paperclips
Did I say that? Doesn't sound like me
I take it back, unless everyone agrees
Staring at a screen, scared to press send
The pursuit of happiness will never end
[Hook: Rich Colmer]
True lies, black skies
Dead life, go sign
The pursuit of happiness will never end
The pursuit of happiness will never end
[Verse 2: Rich Colmer]
Our minds are all just empty vaults
We let them take the treasures that’s our fault
Wake up, do we even exist
When all our memories fit onto a hard disk.
Vegetables, sippin’ on empty mugs
Glassy eyed disconnected shoulder shrugs
Becoming inanimate, at the computer screen
Computers can’t even know what the typing means
Uneasy souls, all covered in gold
Given choices, we got no control
Open eyes are given to the unlucky few
When you see that nothing works, what can you do?
Empty business cards haven’t even got a face
Die, and leave the world behind without a trace
Hearts break, hearts mend
The pursuit of happiness will never end
[Hook: Rich Colmer]
True lies, black skies
Dead life, go sign
The pursuit of happiness will never end
The pursuit of happiness will never end
[Outro: Rich Colmer]
Does any of that make sense?
It doesn’t fucking matter
The pursuit of happiness will never end
True lies, black skies
Dead life, go sign
The pursuit of happiness will never end
The pursuit of happiness will never end
True lies, black skies
Dead life, go sign
The pursuit of happiness will never end
The pursuit of happiness will never end
I hate haughty eyes, despise
145 poodles, Doin’ somethin’ right
I’d love to get in the business of selling lies
Because that’s the kinda shit everybody buys
Or maybe, I could just sell permission slips
Don’t like what you’re saying, now shut your lips
Backwards, retract, redact
Someone please let me take my own words back
Own words, own self
Do I own myself, or does someone else?
Pin pricks, slow drips
They group us together like paperclips
Did I say that? Doesn't sound like me
I take it back, unless everyone agrees
Staring at a screen, scared to press send
The pursuit of happiness will never end
[Hook: Rich Colmer]
True lies, black skies
Dead life, go sign
The pursuit of happiness will never end
The pursuit of happiness will never end
[Verse 2: Rich Colmer]
