Song lyrics
Stop the bus
I wanna be lonely
When seconds pass slowly
And years go flying by
You gotta stop the bus
I'll get off here
Enough's enough
And I'm leaving this factory

All she wants
Is food on the table
I won't be able
To bring it home
No I won't, come on,
All I need, yeah is free
Cause I'm a factory

Did Mother Nature tell you
Boy you come and go as you please
That's what she said to me
Big brother got the keys
And I got Jackson Cannery
Whoa, Whoa
Whoa, Whoa

Millionaires and mill rats live side by side
Messed up my brother's mind
He's far from earth
Tell me, What's he worth?
The same as you
The same as me
In this factory

Did Mother Nature tell you
Boy you come and go as you please
That's what she said to me
Big brother got the keys
And I got Jackson Cannery
Whoa, Whoa
Whoa, Whoa

It's 4 in the morning
Mother don't know
That I'm going far away
She's whispering to the moon
I hope he don't join you soon

Baby boss
Climbs up on his soapbox
But Great Caesar's ghost
Knows what's best for me
He says stop the bus

Did Mother Nature tell you
Boy you come and go as you please
That's what she said to me
Big brother got the keys
And I got Jackson Cannery
Big brother got the keys
And I got Jackson Cannery
Big brother got the keys
And I got Jackson Cannery

Probably my favorite Ben Folds Five song.
The piano does everything.

The Piano is the key. If you took it out, then they'd just be a cooler, talented version of DFA1979
