I Think This Is Beautiful

Hey, you hear the one about the comedian who croaked?
Someone stabbed him in the heart, just a little poke
but he keeled over ‘cause he went into battle wearing chain mail made of jokes...
Hey, you hear the one about the fisherman who passed?
He didn’t jump off that ledge.
He just stepped out into the air and pulled the ground up towards him really fast
like he was pitching a line and went fishing for concrete;
The earth is a drum and he’s hitting it on beat
The reason there’s smog in Los Angeles is ‘cause if we could see the stars,
if we could see the context of the universe in which we exist,
and we could see how small each one of us is
against the vastness of what we don’t know
no one would ever audition for a McDonalds commercial again.
And then where would we be?
No frozen dinners and no TV
and is that a world we want to text in?
