about

RIP Daniel Johnston. Never stop finding uses for the Target bathroom.

lyrics

There’s still so much left to live for! Well there’s...

1. Reading that stack of unread books
2. Writing tunes for all those unused hooks
3. Getting stoned inside that Target bathroom
4. There’s still time to write donation checks
5. Read those shitty magazine articles on sex

This goofy planet’s got no shortage of shit to do. So when you feel like crawling six feet underneath the floor, just remember there’s still so much left to live for.

6. Call your dad ‘cause you two don’t speak
7. Buy a sammich for a guy whose fate looks bleak
8. Get laid inside that Target bathroom
9. Tell that cashier you still love her guts
10. Start a band that sounds just like the Ruts

‘Cause life’s so long and your bucket list should be too. Of course I know it’s tough, after all I wrote this song during a work-based anxiety attack, one month after the girl I loved crushed my heart with a slapjack. Your heroes may have died, but you’re still alive, so strap on those Docs and get on the move. You’ve got a whole lot of wrong people to prove.

When was the last time you got smashed and moshed the night away? Or skanked like yesterday was your last night in Alcatraz bay? So grab that bag of weed and Protex and meet me inside that Target bathroom, but don’t let us lose you. Target has a special, buy one and get two!!
