Magazine Cover
We're not all tortured we can be pleasant people to talk too
It may be 80, 20, how much?
We blow our own trumpets. How much we acknowledge you.
We were not always this way
You'd be surprised at what really one goose golden ticket can do for your children
Sent through the roof in the glass elevator
Then you've got to sit 'em down
Not tell them
Fairy tales are greater
I never got the medal
That why I never
Take things personally
get too personal
I i i i i saw the magazine cover
Headline read
Samuel Deschamps Dead
There goes the greatest songwriter that ever lived
I i i i i saw the magazine cover
Witnesses said it happened on stage
Big head - his body collapsed under the weight
It's not a curse
Blow them too big and the bubbles they burst
I am the soapy residue of something that once was
Stroking an eagle the size of school bus
It's not a crime noses get busted people get along just fine
and all of this so called pressure
any closer and i'd swallow the camera
I i i i i saw the magazine cover
Headline sad
Samuel Deschamps Dead
There goes the greatest songwriter that ever lived
I i i i i saw the magazine cover
Witnesses said it happened on stage
Big head - his body collapsed under the weight
For a minute there perched up on my karaoke cloud
I looked down on myself and honestly I could say now that
I was at my happiest
On the conveyer belt of a 247 common denominator economy prize
Falling off the edge
Just to see myself
On the conveyer belt of a 247 common denominator economy prize
Falling off the edge
Just for you
On a 247 common denominator economy prize
Falling of the edge
I i i i i saw the magazine cover
Headline read
Samuel Deschamps Dead
There goes the greatest songwriter that ever lived
I i i i i saw the magazine cover
Witnesses said it happened on stage
Big head - his body collapsed under the weight
I i i i i saw the magazine cover
Headline sad
Samuel Deschamps Dead
There goes god's greatest gift to no one
I i i i i saw the magazine cover
Witnesses said it was over in moments
Last thing i heard he said he'd gone solo
