to you. We're going to jump up on the kettle drums. We're going to prophesy of the things to come. I know that your angel eyes and your fairy thumbs will divide the night and day in two. And we'll smoke like the end of a pistol. We'll kick like the butt of a gun. We'll grab this life by the fistful. 'Cause we'll burn out long before the sun. We're gonna rob 'em blind, but we'll make it quick. We'll let the cure and the remedy get sick. We'll give the scarlet letter to Moby Dick, and I will give my love to you. We're gonna make tea from the magic We'll let the medicine bend space and time. We're reaching higher for a better paradise we all can just step into. And we'll smoke like the end of a pistol. We'll kick like the butt of a gun. We'll grab this life by the fistful. 'Cause we'll burn out long before the sun. We'll talk like the end of a pistol. We'll kick like the butt of a gun. We'll grab it tonight by the fistful. 'Cause we'll burn out long before the sun. Long before the sun. Long before the sun. Long before the sun. Long before the sun.
