The lowest word the highest note The chat room jumping down my throat And me transcontinental cowboy Holding onto his free range holding onto his herd The judgement is the first to go My holy roman overthrow Me transcontinental cowboy Holding onto his alcohol holding onto his world My cell phone ringing out of tune She never wears perfume So you can let go of the old benediction You can laugh at what we did During the never ending battle Between my ego and my id The techno speak on overload I'm falling like the Alamo Me transcontinental cowboy Emperor of china jester to the world I save my best for second rate I'm locked inside the starting gate And me, transcontinental jockey Holding onto his saddle sticking to the rail I'm losing every match I throw I'm slipping through your radio So you can serve up the whole enchilada You can laugh at what we did During the never ending battle Between my ego and my id I've got a lot to thank my lucky stars for And I've got a lot to thank my god for And there is this side of me you've never heard before In this struggle in this battle in this war In this war, in this war So you can pull out the old faded colors You can laugh at what we did During the never ending battle Between my ego and my id Between my ego and my id
