For a While
Walking along the road
as I listen to some guy
when he tells me of his pies
that a neighbor stole from his angry wife
gets a sympathetic grin
and a grimace from within
do I really have to maintain that smile?
I just want to fall asleep for a while
yet tomorrow surely will be every bit as vile
Out of the subway train (he's late again)
Suddenly, a bony man tells me how his Jesus can make my life complete
(feels like I'm on trial)
I just want to fall asleep for a while
yet tomorrow surely will be every bit as vile
trying to savor my sanity
life should have come with a warranty
I'd really treasure some time for myself
so I can put my smile on a shelf
Lunch break at work at last!
Heading out for apple juice
when the way is blocked by Bruce
shaken up, he tells me about his son
someone jumped him at the zoo
he was gonna take Kung Fu
Do I really have to maintain that smile?
I just wanna fall asleep for a while
Yet tomorrow surely will be every bit as vile
Do I really have to maintain that smile?
I just wanna fall asleep for a while
let my head collapse like a rock on a pillow pile
dream about sailing my boat on the river nile
Yet tomorrow surely will be every bit as vile
as I listen to some guy
when he tells me of his pies
that a neighbor stole from his angry wife
gets a sympathetic grin
and a grimace from within
do I really have to maintain that smile?
I just want to fall asleep for a while
yet tomorrow surely will be every bit as vile
Out of the subway train (he's late again)
Suddenly, a bony man tells me how his Jesus can make my life complete
(feels like I'm on trial)
I just want to fall asleep for a while
yet tomorrow surely will be every bit as vile
trying to savor my sanity
life should have come with a warranty
I'd really treasure some time for myself
so I can put my smile on a shelf
Lunch break at work at last!
Heading out for apple juice
when the way is blocked by Bruce
shaken up, he tells me about his son
someone jumped him at the zoo
he was gonna take Kung Fu
Do I really have to maintain that smile?
I just wanna fall asleep for a while
Yet tomorrow surely will be every bit as vile
Do I really have to maintain that smile?
I just wanna fall asleep for a while
let my head collapse like a rock on a pillow pile
dream about sailing my boat on the river nile
Yet tomorrow surely will be every bit as vile
