Clock in you¡¯re at work but you¡¯re not working so hard
|
Checking messages ten times a day ensuring you¡¯re not bored
|
Talking on someone else¡¯s dime
|
Put a quarter in the pay phone don¡¯t keep them waiting on the line
|
|
Rushing through time just to find myself
|
Asking someone in the future if they¡¯d save me a space
|
Cause the line¡¯s getting longer with every hour
|
People forget why they¡¯re waiting
|
The mood¡¯s turning sour
|
|
I don¡¯t want to go to school tomorrow
|
Stay up late watching TV
|
Eat a midnight snack I¡¯ll pretend it¡¯s Friday
|
Complacent as I¡¯ll ever be
|
|
See those gentle sheep following a path to who knows where
|
Chewing on the grass so plentiful the wool is growing thicker
|
But the grass is made of plastic and there¡¯s plastic on the grass
|
A mechanical lady with her garden hose waters the cement
|
|
Where¡¯s my mystical pan who plays on his flute?
|
Dancing entrancing those who choose to hear his tune
|
There¡¯ll be a man who comes out of hiding
|
He¡¯ll be the one who forces you to decide
|
|
Why can¡¯t I just believe just believe?
|
I can move my feet
|
Pondering is a step beyond wondering
|
Complacent as I¡¯ll ever be
|
