Hot pink catamarans
The food begging call of the pelicans
They're skimming garbage and sifting over
Disappointing gifts from friends

Oh God, couldn't I just change
The history of my life sometimes?
The history of my life sometimes?

I'm growing my hair out
On my head and on my face right now
Gonna try real hard
To keep from speaking very loud

Oh God, couldn't I just change
The history of my life sometimes?
The history of my life sometimes?

Some field where the rains never fell
The sky owes the ground a wishing well
But I'm living in a dry spell
Throwing ashes into flames

Oh God, couldn't I just change
The history of my life sometimes?
The history of my life sometimes?
