| I really have to clean up my room
|
| You know its been so long since i’ve seen my floor
|
| It’s getting kind of scary in fact i suspect
|
| That when i finally clear away i won’t know her anymore
|
| How we’ll have grown so far apart
|
| From those early days with the fresh new start
|
| So in the end it won’t matter at all
|
| So why should i bother with the rise and the fall
|
| So i quietly lay back down
|
| And watch tv But these are the things we tell ourselves
|
| Eventual stories designed to amuse
|
| It’s a game we play and we play it well
|
| In fact we’re so damn good that we try to lose
|
| So we can keep hiding
|
| So we can survive
|
| And keep on believing
|
| Someday we’ll go outside &drive
|
| Gonna go outside &drive…
|
| I have resolved not to leave my house
|
| Till my floor comes back and my room is clean
|
| So i’m really kind of glad that my tv’s here
|
| While i concoct my plan to fulfill my dream
|
| Now won’t that be wonderful when i’ll finally be done
|
| I just can’t wait for it then i’ll start to have fun
|
| It’s getting hard lately to concentrate
|
| All my appointments cancelled cause i’m horribly late
|
| You know i think i need a prison
|
| In order to dream of being free
|
| But these are the things we tell ourselves
|
| Eventual stories designed to amuse
|
| It’s a game we play and we play it well
|
| In fact we’re so damn good that we try to lose
|
| So we can keep hiding
|
| So we can survive
|
| And keep on believing
|
| Someday we’ll go outside &drive |
