Steer the rental car into the wreck
You bought the insurance so what the heck
Your hands are clean, you paid in cash
It's not your mess

Pointing the glass cannon at the deck
To avoid floating loans and college debts
You want what's next
You want your just desserts for breakfast

By the time that you get this
You will have burned through your wishes
Misdirection, the fleet street magicians
They left you there lifting
A cush body bag full of empty predictions

You keep talking in the future perfect
Going on and on about what will have been by then
And when happens will it even be worth it?
All that future perfect's making the present tense
Is a wicked pack tarot cards really your best defense?

Tell me again how that's working
Talking in the future perfect
Tell again how it's worth it
Living at a distance

Jump-cut to a flashback, total recall
War of the attrition, Venus and Mars
Post pre-cognition, we got it wrong
Love is not the past participle

Impatient with your punctuation
Trade question marks for exclamations
Grammar rules do you still break them
With the new object of your affectation

You're a hopeless Cassandra
With generalized panic
You get chiromantic
With every new hand that you damage
You can't even manage
To tell me if this will be feast or famine

You keep talking in the future perfect
Going on and on about what will have been by then
And when happens will it even be worth it?
All that future perfect's making the present tense

With a medium-sized crystal ball
And those temporary friends
Cause you think you'll have it all
Until you parse the sentences

And find your subject predicated
Spoken for your verbs are basic
Those bold clairvoyant statements
Are they Magic 8 Ball proclamations
Concentrate and ask again
I'm waiting

Keep talking in the future perfect
(Why do you keep talking in the future perfect?
Tell me again how that's working)
Going on and on about what will have been
(You've been living at a distance)

Keep talking in the future perfect
(Why do you keep talking in the future perfect?
Tell me again how that's working)
Going on and on about what will have been
(You've been living at a distance)
