[Verse 1]
We stopped for coffee
In the redwood forest
Giant dripping leaves
Spoons of powdered cream

I wanted to kiss you
But I wasn't sure how
Like those Indians
Lost in the rainforest

Forced to drag burning wood wherever they went
They all had forgotten how to start a fire

[Chorus]
This is why people OD on pills
And jump from the Golden Gate Bridge
Anything to feel weightless again

[Verse 2]
Those poor lost Indians
When the white man found them
Most died of TB
The rest went insane

In our motel room
You're drinking slice and gin
Reading Moby Dick
On the other bed
Remember the first time
We slept together
You said it felt like
When you learned to float

[Chorus]
This is why people OD on pills
And jump from the Golden Gate Bridge
Anything to feel weightless again
