Lyrics Another Day - Swingin Utters

Another Day

I’ve been back now for a day or two at best
And I’m punishing myself for taking the rest
I’ve been in slumber and in splendor in my house with beer and whiskey
My new son and spouse well, they’ve welcomed me
With open arms and handshakes at family get-togethers and at bars
I’ve a massive gift collection in my pantry bottles of wine
Dead drying roses and cheap cigars
Now I’m back to every day to the songs I have to play
To the roads along the way all the people in the fray
No more family or home 'cause my home is not my own
Got to get up and away to another day and place
I’m a speck in the collective minds of millions
Nothing but a pawn in my own twisted game
I’ve a good mind to fuck off and finally leave it
Get an office job and settle with the dust and stains
But she gives me reason to go and give it to them
Shovel the shit from drunken ramblings and perversions
If I’m not laughed out of the ring
Then I’ve succeeded in bringing to some poor sap my new distractions
Now I’m feeling tame taut, detached and lame like a tired old cliché
Give me all the blame no more smiles or frowns
Just leave me blackened out amid familiar shouts I’ll take the same old route
Misdirection leads me to it blindly maps and border crossings greet me kindly
My bones are splinters used for extra kindling
For the gods that hover up and around me, laughing
