Fighting My Ghosts Again
A jingle jangle in my brain
Splash splash like the sound of rain
Pitter patter hey what's a matter
Is someone calling me today
I'm a space case, no savoir faire
In round peg city, I'm a square
Got my mind wrapped up
In Superman's chains
And I'm fighting my ghost again
Yeah I'm fighting my ghosts again
I'm fighting my ghosts again
But my ghosts have no name
I check my notebook. I write what I think
I draw cartoons in permanent ink
I see
Strange shapes floating in the air
At the bus stop
When I hang out there
There go the hipsters
They live over that way
They pay me no mind
Never say have a nice day
The jingle jangle entangles my brain
And I start fighting my ghosts again
And I start fighting my ghosts again
Yeah I start
But my ghosts have no name
From cradle-dee to grave-y-goo there's
What you say and what you do but till you
Find the book you can' t turn the page
You're like a stray dog cripple with mange
Quicksand bound in the Swamp of Maybe
Don't go chucking bathwater out with the baby
Gotta measure pleasure against the pain
Or you'll be fighting your ghosts again
Yes you'll be fighting your ghosts again
You will be fighting your ghost again
But your ghost have no name
Choose your battles
When fighting the shadows
Hunt them down one by one.
Catch them, name them
Be sure to tame them,
Then you'll have the power and you'll be done
Jingle jangle, oh, jingle-jangle
