Epilogue: Brian, Jenny & the Mayans

Brian says he’s gonna go home early
Jenny says she’s never gonna quit
They were flippin' burgers at the same place
And often sharing the same bed
Jenny lived inside the stucco suburbs
Brain lived inside a trailer park
They both came from the same side of the tracks
But now Jenny is a lawyer
We could all do better than we’re doing right now
We’re just doing all the right things wrong
Let’s stop dumbing things down because people are dumb
And say the Mayan calendar is running out
Brian buys his plywood at home depot
Jenny hires contractors now
He prefers his Xbox to Jenny’s chardonnay
And also does peyote when he can
Jenny takes vacations to the mountains
Brain walks up to the library
To use free internet to IM Jenny
Who gets her texts beamed right into her head
Whoo!
Now they’re both freaking out about the weather
Their acting like the world’s about to end
But if it did, all the payments they sent in
For their car and phone are totally wasted
They’ve probably got a couple of good years left
But you probably shouldn’t take that from me
Because I don’t really care how it all works out
The jig was up after the fur traders and priests
We could all do better than we’re doing right now
We’re just doing all the right things wrong
Let’s stop dumbing things down because people are dumb
And say the Mayan calendar is running out
