This song will take you deep down the rabbit hole into a twisted tea party of characters that are dying to make it in a dark world full of cliches and madness.
lyrics
Here, I am
In the heart of the matter,
Sippin' and a trippin' at a tea party
With the Mad Hatter
We're watching people round us,
Getting fatter,
Taking our lumps with the,
Uh-Heffalumps,
And they're getting sadder...
Coffin in LA
Is gonna take me away
Coffee in LA
Is gonna keep me awake
Coughin' in LA
Is gonna take me today
Coffin in LA
Come and take me away
Here, I am
Padded cell, rubber room...
Watching anorexic hectics
Sneaking pink macaroons (so yummy)
Life is just a second
That lasts all afternoon,
It's always tea time,
When your head's a balloon
Coffin in LA
Is gonna take me away
Coffee in LA
Is gonna keep me awake
Coughin' in LA
Is gonna take me today
Coffin in LA
Come and take me away
Raining faces melt away
Turning me into a zombie
Here, I am
Brain fried and wired,
Caffeine and nicotine,
Never get tired,
Sucking on a dayglow
Pacifier
Kissing lip leaves
On the sidewalk,
Just trying to get higher
Coffin in LA
Is gonna take me away
Coffee in LA
Is such a cliche
Coughin' in LA
Is gonna take me today
Coffin in LA
Come and take me away
Coffin in LA
Is gonna take me away
Coffee in LA
Is such a cliche
Coughin' in LA
Is gonna take me today
Coffin in LA
Come on and take me away
