Hit My Stride
In a warm, but empty bed
Mind thick, body lead
In a business suit I wore
As pajamas instead
Waking up with a sigh
Today I'll hit my stride
Out the shower
Alarm's been blaring through the wall
The pounding from my neighbor
Seems to echo the throb
In my mind
I will try, today, to hit my stride
I'm getting old
Old enough to know
Can't be out causing all that trouble
Better to go home
Acting bonafide
Today I'll hit my stride
Pop my shoulder
Adjust my tie
Don't blink or I'll pass you by
Asking for nothing
Taking every win
Up or down, I'll strut to the end
Monday rolls around
Oh, it's about 4 AM
My mouth's all full of cotton
Wonder where I am again
With Advil on my side
Today, I'll hit my stride
8:00 start
There's traffic to contend
I might just have made it
If I'd left before 10
Oh what a ride
Today, I'll hit my stride
Pop my shoulder
Adjust my tie
Don't blink or I'll pass you by
Asking for nothing
Taking every win
Up or down, I'll strut to the end
Tuesday night date
Kept me out till 4 again
I hate to call in sick
But it'd be worse to just go in
Oh what a ride
Today I'll hit my stride
Friday night
Here to set me free
Stay out late and act that fool
You know I party
And as the stress subsides
Tonight I'll hit my stride
Pop my shoulder
Adjust my tie
Don't blink or I'll pass you by
Asking for nothing
Relish every sin
Up or down, I'll strut to the end
Mind thick, body lead
In a business suit I wore
As pajamas instead
Waking up with a sigh
Today I'll hit my stride
Out the shower
Alarm's been blaring through the wall
The pounding from my neighbor
Seems to echo the throb
In my mind
I will try, today, to hit my stride
I'm getting old
Old enough to know
Can't be out causing all that trouble
Better to go home
Acting bonafide
Today I'll hit my stride
Pop my shoulder
Adjust my tie
Don't blink or I'll pass you by
Asking for nothing
Taking every win
Up or down, I'll strut to the end
Monday rolls around
Oh, it's about 4 AM
My mouth's all full of cotton
Wonder where I am again
With Advil on my side
Today, I'll hit my stride
8:00 start
There's traffic to contend
I might just have made it
If I'd left before 10
Oh what a ride
Today, I'll hit my stride
Pop my shoulder
Adjust my tie
Don't blink or I'll pass you by
Asking for nothing
Taking every win
Up or down, I'll strut to the end
Tuesday night date
Kept me out till 4 again
I hate to call in sick
But it'd be worse to just go in
Oh what a ride
Today I'll hit my stride
Friday night
Here to set me free
Stay out late and act that fool
You know I party
And as the stress subsides
Tonight I'll hit my stride
Pop my shoulder
Adjust my tie
Don't blink or I'll pass you by
Asking for nothing
Relish every sin
Up or down, I'll strut to the end
