From the recording Alert the Band... Here Comes Dali Pigeon
At a certain stage of life it becomes impossible not to hear from friends and acquaintances about bucket lists. We like making lists too, so here is ours of things we are not planning to do ever (or ever again.) Happy to report the list is completed and checked off!
Lyrics
FUCK IT LIST
Verse 1
Some folks are busy making lists
To check off before they die
Some folks wonder what they’ve missed
For living their best life
But if you’re happy just to exist
Might I suggest The Fuck It List
CHORUS
Come join the Fuck It bucket brigade
Enjoy those plans you’ll never make
Nowhere to be; nothing to see
The Fuck it list will set you free
Verse 2
Won’t go camping
Not even glamping
Won’t climb Everest
Or any of the rest
Stamp collecting’s not for me
There’s no need to surf or ski
So many sports I will not play
Not golf, not curling, nor croquet
Won’t be traveling to Nepal
Saying no to pickle ball
CHORUS
Come join the Fuck It bucket brigade
Enjoy those plans you’ll never make
Nowhere to be; nothing to see
The Fuck it list will set you free
Verse 3
Won’t be reading War and Peace
Brewing beer or planting trees
No more furniture from Ikea
Freebasing’s not a good idea
No spelunking or sky diving
Bungee jumping or hang gliding
You won’t find me raising chickens
Or on Arctic expeditions
Never want to renovate
Join a cult or meditate
CHORUS
Come join the Fuck It bucket brigade
Enjoy those plans you’ll never make
Nowhere to be; nothing to see
The Fuck it list will set you free
Verse 4
In your time remaining
Take pleasure in abstaining
Imagine as you lie in bed
Things NOT to do before you’re dead
Your dreams will instantly come true
When you don’t do what you’ll never do
No need for a bucket list
Just make yourself a Fuck It list!
CHORUS
And join the Fuck It bucket brigade
Enjoy those plans you’ll never make
Nowhere to be; nothing to see
The Fuck it list will set you free
