Desert Island Questionnaire - Conor Oberst (康纳·奥博斯特)[00:00:00]

Say that you were stranded on a desert island[00:00:08]

What books you gonna bring [00:00:13]

What friends would tag along [00:00:15]

Say you had a month you knew you were dying[00:00:21]

How'd you spend your time [00:00:25]

What goodbyes would take too long [00:00:27]

You don't like this game and you take exception[00:00:34]

Who wants all this trouble even hypothetical[00:00:39]

With the charging sky above[00:00:46]

And the ground below that could swallow everyone[00:00:50]

Staring at your phone at another party[00:01:04]

Spent a lot on clothes[00:01:08]

Got a lot of skin to show[00:01:10]

People in the pool like a drowning army[00:01:17]

Smoke along the moats[00:01:21]

And the hotel lobby glows[00:01:23]

Wish that you could dance but you got no partner[00:01:30]

Keep tapping on your glass[00:01:34]

Cause you wanna make a toast[00:01:35]

To the ennui of our times[00:01:42]

To the selfishness in everyone you know[00:01:46]

Made a lot of friends but they can't be trusted[00:01:55]

Don't know what their angle is[00:01:59]

Post up at the bar and I'm double-fisting[00:02:04]

Talking to a mannequin[00:02:08]

Don't know what it means when he takes my pulse[00:02:12]

And says that I'm a lot like him[00:02:16]

I say that's fair enough[00:02:21]

That's why I'm trying to loosen up[00:02:24]

Every lunatic must be well-intentioned[00:02:38]

Sets himself apart[00:02:42]

He's an instrument of God[00:02:44]

He took her from the playground[00:02:51]

To the farmhouse cellar[00:02:53]

Kissed her while he killed her[00:02:55]

Like a good Samaritan[00:02:57]

They finally found her body many autumns after[00:03:03]

Interviewed her mother [00:03:08]

Said she'd now be twenty-one[00:03:10]

And although we lost her young[00:03:16]

I know the good lord has a plan for all of us[00:03:20]

Mormons at the door they look clean and handsome[00:03:29]

Always have a good sales pitch[00:03:33]

Your little sister swears she can read my aura[00:03:37]

But I can't take her serious[00:03:41]

Need something to blame for this human nature[00:03:46]

Is that what this condition is [00:03:50]

I'm so bored with my life[00:03:55]

But I'm still afraid to die[00:03:59]

Everyone's asleep in this burning building[00:04:03]

And I can't wake them up in time[00:04:07]

You go on ahead I'll be right behind you[00:04:12]

We're headed to the finish line[00:04:16]

I can't get closer[00:04:20]

Until this is over[00:04:24]

Pretend that you were stranded on a desert island[00:04:37]

What would be the message[00:04:42]

That you'd spell out for the plane [00:04:43]

Say the engine failed when that plane was flying[00:04:50]

If you were the pilot [00:04:55]

Would you curse or would you pray [00:04:56]

No one's gonna cry at this John Doe funeral[00:05:03]

Not a lot to say didn't even have a name[00:05:07]

Light a candle just in case he was someone's friend[00:05:15]

Throw some flowers on the grave[00:05:22]
