Flotsam Locked Into a Groove Lyrics
Every chandelier of every twinkling golden year
Has gathered dust
And no one can reach up that far
Every chardonnay of every weekend getaway
Has turned to piss
Trickling in the reservoir
All
This
Will
End
We're hurtling around the sun
All
This
Will
End
A shopping mall, the Parthenon
Every candle lit for every god or cancer kid
Has flickered out
And no one ever heard the prayer
Every candidate on every major syndicate
Is filled with doubt
Along with every tax-payer
All
This
Will
End
We're flotsam locked into a groove
All
This
Will
End
'Cause of a tantrum the sun threw
All
This
Will
End
The sun will soon consume us all
All
This
Will
End
Meteors, wrecking balls
Has gathered dust
And no one can reach up that far
Has turned to piss
Trickling in the reservoir
This
Will
End
We're hurtling around the sun
This
Will
End
A shopping mall, the Parthenon
Has flickered out
And no one ever heard the prayer
Is filled with doubt
Along with every tax-payer
This
Will
End
We're flotsam locked into a groove
This
Will
End
'Cause of a tantrum the sun threw
This
Will
End
The sun will soon consume us all
This
Will
End
Meteors, wrecking balls

According to Tim himself: "The rare occasion where the Good Life “locks into a groove”! It’s fairly atypical of my writing style, which makes it all the more interesting to me when a song such as this actually makes it onto an album. This also seems like one of those “cool songs” to me, another thing the Good Life doesn’t do very often (nor me)!"
