[Verse 1]
I'd like your hair long and ladled to the ground
You'd prefer an astronaut
Someone to relate to and someone to command
And I will be a simple man
I could hardly wait for my stars to fall in line
And synchronize and shine
A wasted string of years and a wasted string of lies
You're still the same to me

[Chorus 1]
It's a waste of a song
It's a waste of a song
You're a waste of my lungs
It's a waste of a song

[Verse 2]
I'd like your face gone and in its place the sun
And I will be an astronaut
For I have come to surface to catch some light and feed
And I have everything I need
And I could hardly wait for my stars to fall in line
And synchronize and shine
A wasted string of years and a wasted string of lies
You're still the same to me
[Chorus 2]
You're a waste of a song
You're a waste of my lungs
It's a waste of a song

[Chorus 3]
It's a waste of a song
You're a waste of my lungs
You're a waste of a song
