Morning Ritual

Do you ever feel like a knight
Drafted for a war?
And for a cause you don't care for
You like the way things were before
Do you ever feel so sick
You can barely brush your teeth?
You feel mundane's claws
Scratching at your ears

Do you have someone out there
To breathe on your cheek
To share true love's kisses
As tokens to keep?

For your morning ritual (morning ritual)
The morning ritual
The morning ritual (morning ritual)
The morning ritual

So who's to blame for that idea you didn't write down?
Oh, that sweet money-maker
I bet you wish you had the money now (had the money now)
And who's to blame for that suit
You didn't pick up from the dry cleaners?
But it's on the cheap rack outside
Next to the Ralphs and the old T-shirts

So you turn to your lover (morning ritual)
And you beg her never to leave you
You say you'll get your shit together
And you just hope they believe you

For your morning ritual (morning ritual)
The morning ritual
A morning ritual (morning ritual)
A morning ritual
Aah-ah, morning ritual

Morning ritual
