Polite

How have you been sleeping
Do you still leave on a light
Do you still toss and turn
Waiting on the world to earn you back
'Bout a quarter after nine

Do you still burn the coffee
Then drink it black out of spite
Do you still carry on like no one ever did you wrong
Does it still keep you up at night

Are you still polite
When no one else is listening
Do you still put the effort in the fight
Playing to the balconies when
Everybody else is scared of heights
And tossing off your casualties
So you can say you always travel light

Do you still like your whiskey
Or have grown up into gin
Are you still counting straight to ten
Hoping when you hit the end
That I'll have given up the fight

Are you still polite
When no one else is listening
Do you still put the effort in all night
Playing to the balconies though
Everybody else is scared of heights
And tossing off your casualties
So you can say you always travel light
