V1
One hundred years from now
No one will care about
Anything you ever did
Anything you ever said
And if by chance they do
You were probably a jerk
Or likely even worse,
Kept people down by force
But perhaps you were a saint
That's an honorable thing
Gave your life to help the poor
Fought injustices and wars
Either way, you get the point
We don't have much time to waste, just
Find yourself a horse, and
Ride it till it breaks
Pre Chorus 1
All anyone will say is
"Wait, what was their name?"
But don't worry, it's ok
Actually, it's great, cuz
No one's keep score, so...
So just get over...
CH1
You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, get over you, get over you.
V2
One hundred years from now
You'll be floating through the air
While the cocaine that you did
Decomposes in your hair
If you're listening to this song
Then, one hundred years from now
You'll probably be dead
Unless you've figured out
How to change the serpentine belt
Replace all your stem cells
Seven daily health tips
Ketosis or kale chips
So what's it all about?
Can't we figure this shit out?
Do we really have to fight
If we all still have to die?
Pre Chorus 2
All anyone will say is
"Wait, what was their name?"
But don't worry, it's ok
Actually, it's great, cuz
No one's keep score, so...
So just get over...
CH2
You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, get over you, get over you.
BRIDGE
V3
A couple years ago
My friend took a vacation
Thirty days of silence
Tried to meditate some —
Where in Southeast Asia
I think it was Thailand...
Either way, he showed me
Pictures from his camera, and
Written on the wall
Of the temple where he sat
It said "cut yourself some slack"
And then this basic fact, it
Made me laugh out loud
So deep but yet so simple
It said "One hundred years from now, remember:
All new people"
So just get over...
CH3
You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, get over you, get over
You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, get over you, get over
You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, get over you, get...

Aaron Lee Tasjan is one my favorite artists. I feel a kindred spirit to his songwriting, and lyrically he is right up there with all the greats. This cat makes me cry and laugh in the same song. Theo Katzman

I was initially drawn toward Vulfpeck's earlier instrumental tracks. This album effectively earned my respect for their vocal works. Listening to "Running Away" and "Baby I Don't Know" is like uncovering buried gems from the 1970's. "Hero Town" sounds like an instrumental outtake from Three Dog Night's "Hard Labor" album with deeper bass, earning my respect for Jack Stratton's mixing skills. I would love to see him do a masterclass for mixing in the Vulf Conservatory. t0cktock
