Chinese Fountain

The Growlers

Keep tossing quarters in a Chinese fountain
A whole bunch of wishes unanswered, but who's counting
1239 chicks left me brokenhearted
I was a pretty boy, till love left me scarred
There's something going around, can't put my finger in
Like bigger fish are going to shoot out of the earth like diamons

We are the miners of another generation
Hills scraped dry with no choice but be creative
Everybody sick and tired of waiting
Couldn't get any harder to be patient

Is techno so shitty, even disco seems punk
Like the water so filthy, it's no wonder why we're drunk
Every little kid wants a computer in his pocket
The trophies on the mantels of the digital profits
The internet is bigger than Jesus and John Lennon
And nobody wants to know where we're heading

We are the miners of another generation
Hills scraped dry with no choice but be creative
Everybody sick and tired of waiting
Couldn't get any harder to be patient

Keep tossing quarters in a Chinese fountain
A whole bunch of wishes unanswered, but who's counting
1239 chick's left me brokenhearted
I was a pretty boy, till love left me scarred

We are the miners of another generation
Hills scraped dry with no choice but be creative
Everybody sick and tired of waiting
Couldn't get any harder to be patient
