Lyrics Daniel Johnston

Daniel Johnston

Is and Always Was

So won’t you pretty up some

Let your hair hang down

Let your love come around

With a nightmare tease

As if it never was

And only if just because

It never happened before

True love at your door

And I’ve got you now

Even if you won’t admit

Ain’t I a chicken shit

Wallowing in the mud

While you’re waiting for blood

Maybe the wizard of Oz

Ran out of constellation prizes

I’m not at all too surprised

I have no reward, but a promise from the Lord

And the new horizon

A never ending trip to nowhere

Not knowing we were on television

As we travelled down life’s worn out highway

Let love rule our hearts

Let peace guide the planets

And if we understand it
