I am the captain of this rusty bucket ship
I left my home in search of being gold
I promised my family that
So I set sail for the land of green grass
But so much time's passed
I forgot what I was looking for
Oh, Bonnaroo, the bird of a bad joke
Push yourself to the limit,
kid, that a boy way to go
Overruled, the bird of a bad joke
Push yourself to the limit,
kid, that a boring way to go
Compass is broke, it gives me no direction
gotta see through the smoke
Stay the course, folks will all say
but they never know the way
Deliver me, Lord, some kind of answer
and I can't paddle no more
Oh, Porteroo, the butt of a bad joke
Push yourself to the limit,
kid, that a boy way to go
Oh, Porteroo, the butt of a bad joke
Push yourself to the limit,
kid, that a boy way to go
Hope on a rope, the bud of a bad joke
Push yourself to the limit,
kid, that a boy way to go
Push yourself to the limit,
there's no end to this rope
Always off in the distance, ah, she blows
I hope, like a carrion on a rope
Just out of reach, oh, ah, she blows
I hope, like a carrion on a rope
Always off in the distance,
