All your idols will fall someday
But people will guide you & then replace them
Look at me & wanna be me
And I'll let you down slowly, eventually
I'll stop caring about my creations
And I'll fade out, as I did in
Point at me & talk about me
So I can forget it all in a week
When someone else's charm takes over me
I'll be elated, too high to speak to you
I'll let you down when you figure me out
Cuz I've got some flaws I never thought about
And they'll get under your skin (never came to see me again)
And I'll never know why (never came to see me again)
You never came to see me again (never came to see me again)

I hope you read
All the directions that I provided
And if not, you'll suffer
Just look at that zero marring your name
Study this material
Else you'll fail my exam
And I'll kick you out of school
And we won't let you back in
It's a momentum thing
Keep up your studying
Get your degree
Don't let me be the way they taught me
I hope you read all the directions
I hope you saw there is a back side
I hope you knew those were trick questions
I hope you wrote your name on the top of the page if you want full credit
Study this material
Else you'll fail my exam
And I'll kick you out of school
And we won't let you back
Study this material
Else you'll fail my exam
And I'll kick you out of school
And we won't let you back in

I don't know what to put on my body
It's a sign that I shouldn't put anything
I'll move away & start a colony
You could try to show me
But I wouldn't know what to do with
All the nicest clothing
I'd try to wash it & I'd ruin it
I don't know what to put on my body
Don't even show me a magazine
I never learned how to read them
I can't follow those diagrams
That illustrate all the trendy pants I need
I can't make up my mind
On what style I like
Or how to present myself
To the people that guide me
I don't know what to put on my body
It's a sign that I shouldn't put anything
I'll move away & start a colony
For me for me & some other bodies
You think I'm kidding, but I'm really gonna do it

Welcome aboard, I'm glad to see
So many interested in learning things
About this beautiful, beautiful place
Aren't you glad you're visiting?
Now I'll remind you
That any precious limbs should remain in the car
Cuz there are cuz there are
Carnivorous mallards
If I'm too giddy, too high-strung
To be the travel guide, I understand
Just know your safety is my main-
My primary concern
You'll find that even
Without a travel guide
You'll find, you'll find you'll find: you're fine
The things I notice
They cater to my experience, so limited
So if you wanna learn
A fact or history, you gotta go read it!
There are so many books
That have been published about this place
And I've not read a one
Go find a library
I don't know how to get to the library though...you're on your own

All your idols will fall someday
But people will guide you anyway
And even if you don't want them to, they'll be ready & willing
& open-armed & waiting for you
All your idols will fall someday
So you gotta prepare for someone new
And she will be eager
And he will be limitless
And she will be stoked that you exist
And he will be thoughtful & active & & &
