I spent the summer like an atom bomb
Cutting wires from the inside out
And when I put myself together again
I’m going to move out of my parents house
Every summer it’s the same
And I know that I’m to blame
I’m going to build myself a rocket ship
Out of shoelaces and Elmer’s glue
And in the middle of a thunder storm
I’m going to roll it down the avenue
If you miss me while I’m taking off
I’m going to call you while I’m on the moon
If you never hear my name
If you never see my face
Tell me everything’s OK
Well I hope you’re doing fine
Well I hope you’re doing fine

I can be your third man, doll
Just a symptom you’ve forgotten
You slip me in your pocket
Turn off the television now
Set me in the corner
Now in technicolor
Geppetto won’t you hear me out?
You’re painting on my features
I’m everything you needed
Don’t put me on the shelf, no
I’ll never find another
Don’t ask me what my name means
I don’t believe in that
Conversations one sided
Pull my strings and watch me come apart for you
I don’t believe in that
Trouble speaking whenever you’re around
And tell me what you want to do
I don’t believe in that
Wooden pieces inside
You pull my strings
And watch me come apart for you
I don’t believe in that
I don’t believe in that
Bienvenue à tous et a tout au championnat interstellaire de tennis
Pendant le match, veuillez ne pas utiliser d'appareils de téléportation
De transport cybernétique ou de photographie avec flash en la matche
I wonder what you dream about
You’re smoking out the window
Oh, darling Geppetto
I’m wishing on a star too
Grow legs and start talking
Walking right beside you
Cut off the strings and put me down
Tell me what I’m missing
Oh I never listen
To the crickets on my shoulder
Don’t ask me what my name means
I don’t believe in that
Conversations one sided
Pull my strings and watch me come apart for you
I don’t believe in that
Trouble speaking whenever you’re around
And tell me what you want to do
I don’t believe in that
Wooden pieces inside
You pull my strings
And watch me come apart for you
I don’t believe in that
I don’t believe in that
De la parte de tous vos amis à l'ITC, merci et bienvenue

You’re still shaking
I’m barely moving at all
Green lines cut through
A black screen tells you I’m fine
You’re Gwyneth Paltrow
I’m Richie Tenenbaum
I cut my hair off
You like me either way
And every summer
It’s going to be the same
Going back to Telluride
Riding round with nothing on
Staying at your parents’ house
Acting like there’s nothing wrong
Going back to Telluride
Sleeping with the TV on
Darling so coledified
Oh, I know it won’t be long
Pull my sutures
And climb in I’m warm inside
You’ll breath my lungs
I’m florescent and infrared
And I’m yours
Smoke out the window
Listen to CD Roms
You’re like a race car
You are a palindrome
And every summer
Will never be the same
Going back to Telluride
Riding round with nothing on
Staying at your parents’ house
Acting like there’s nothing wrong
Going back to Telluride
Sleeping with the TV on
Darling so coledified
Oh, I know it won’t be long

This isn’t like you, San Francisco
All of life’s a silent disco
That’s what they told you back in flight school
Before you learned to fly
And later on in your compartment
You draw the shades and sit in darkness
Reading screens on aeronautics
Measure space and time
Don’t know where you’re going to land
In California or Japan
With your helmet on
And pens in your pocket
Think of the girl that you loved in college
She kept your shirt and you built a rocket
It wouldn’t fit you now
The Falls been cold but space is freezing
Houston tells me how you’re feeling
These knobs and buttons have no meaning
They flicker on and off
I won’t ever understand
If you’re a comet or a man
If the station close and the stars don’t glimmer
If you might want to come home for the Winter
The Teflon suits and polyester
Hang them by the door
