The True Story of the Bridgewater Astral League

Hey fellas, dig my new asbestos suit, huh?

You thinks this is about drugs
It's not
Its when my 13th bad idea turned right
And i made up my mind to exploit it
It wasn't quite as hard as you'd think it might
But the timing was real important
And i had made up my mind to enjoy it

I knew a bunch of thugs
Who were just hanging around
I'd agitate and activate them
Make them come on board

I swear I could feel the universe expanding
And my vision was all commanding
I gave them these tapes
To listen to as they slept
I gave them the gift of electricity
They had a gift for theft
I had our bodies hanging below us like moorings

And we all got to school in the morning
Where the teachers were never more boring-
And is that the end rushing towards me
Or is it the floor?
Well either way
I never saw it coming and what's more
If i had
I would have ignored it

And that is why I never got caught
So fuck you and whatever the fuck you thought
It was like stepping onto
A moving train
It was like the whole damn
Thing was prearranged-
It's my lucky day!

The timing
The timing
The timing
Oh the timing was a beautiful thing
As for the end-
I swear I never saw it coming

Add any references the song makes to pop culture/history/etc.
