about

This song is about 5G. Please don't tell Them.

lyrics

Take me down to the babbling creek,

Keep me clean keep me safe from your high 5G towers,

I don't know what its like to be free,

But it feels so good to be with the trees,

And to not have to hear crooked words from The Magazine,

Run away from this miserable town,

Boys and girls comin round under my open window,

And they say everything is my fault,

That they’ll baptize me in fire and salt,

And don’t question things they believe, it’s in The Magazine,

Older man in an old iron lung,

Wrestling with the old ghost of Richard Nixon,

Don’t you know it’s your fault that he’s dead,

That he’s living rent-free in my head,

Don’t you know he could come back again, its in The Magazine

See me here in the wide forest green,

My old compass it points nowhere in four directions,

I can see you walking right next to me,

And the past is just bad memories,

And in time we don’t even need to see who killed the magazine.
