  • Watermarks on the ceiling
    I can see Jesus and he's frowning at me
    I see a dead seal on the beach
    The old man says he's already saved it three times this week
    Guess it just wants to die
    I would wanna die too
    With people putting oil into my air
    But to be fair, I've done my share
    Guess everybody's got their different point of view

    I was walking down Sunset Strip, Phillip Island, not Los Angeles
    Got me some hot chips and a cold drink
    Took a sandy seat on the shore
    There's a paper on the ground, it makes my headache quite profound
    As I read it out aloud
    It said, The Great Barrier Reef it ain't so great anymore
    It's been raped beyond belief, the dredgers treat it like a whore
    I drank 'til I was sinking, sank 'til I was thinking
    That I'm thankful for this view
    I drank 'til I was sinking, sank 'til I was thinking
    That I'm thankful for this view

    We either think that we're invincible or that we are invisible
    When realistically we're somewhere in between
    We all think that we're nobody but everybody is somebody else's somebody

    Don't ask me what I really mean
    I am just a reflection
    Of what you really wanna see
    So take you want from me

    Don't ask me what I really mean
    I am just a reflection
    Of what you really wanna see
    So take you want from me

    Don't ask me what I really mean
    I am just a reflection
    Of what you really wanna see
    So take you want from me

    So take what you want from me
    So take what you want from me
    So take what you want from me
    So take what you want from me
    So take what you want from me
    So take what you want from me
    So take what you want from me
    So take what you want

    Satellites on the ceiling
    I can see Jesus and she's smiling at me
    All I wanna say is Writer/s: Courtney Barnett
