On Sabbatical
Yeah, wait I-
Dude, did you just make that up?
Yeah, so I'll do a little intro, then we'll do a little verse part, then we'll do a chorus, then we'll do a - a little outro there.
Okay.
Alright.
Okay.
Count me in.
One, two, three, four.
(Okay.
Count me in.
One, two, three, four)
Miserably, counting down the minutes impatiently
How did I go wonder this aimlessly
And it feels like I'm stuck for a while
(One, two, three, four)
History, keeps me up and going with misery
Let me go live out like Desiree
But I'm losing desire tonight
(One, two, three)
You could open up a bottle to go drown yourself in
I think I'm just gonna hang back, I don't fit with your friends
Gotta get out by 11 if society ends
But with my luck I'll just be waiting days until I'm free again
Well I get myself ready and I step outside
And there's a whole new world that I have yet to try
I know that I don't have two dollars but I'm gonna live life like I'm on sabbatical
(One, two, three)
Well then I get all pretty and I cannot lie
I gotta go back down and I don't know why
So I'm gonna live life like I'm on sabbatical on sabbatical, no
Heavenly, my body starts feeling adrenaline
Sitting takes it all in with ketamine
And I play with my mind for a while
(One, two, three, four)
Desperately, calling at the office can rest a week
The ringing starts sounding like death to me
And I'll answer it as someone you like
(One, two, three)
Then you'll see me at the diner drinking coffee and rum
Whipping out a cigarette like it's still 1991
And I'm spinning like a record going fast as a gun
Putting on a "Smiley Smile" and I'm getting "Good Vibrations" on
Well I get myself ready and I step outside
And there's a whole new world that I have yet to try
I know that I don't have two dollars but I'm gonna live life like I'm on sabbatical
(One, two, three)
Well then I get all pretty and I cannot lie
I gotta go back down and I don't know why
So I'm gonna live life like I'm on sabbatical on sabbatical, no
And you'd think I'd start to get it when I turn 21
But I'll never see the difference as subtly fun
When you face away the mirror you can be anyone
So just leave me be and let me see when I'll be fucking done
Well I get myself ready and I step outside
And there's a whole new world that I have yet to try
I know that I don't have two dollars but I'm gonna live life like I'm on sabbatical
Well then I get all pretty and I cannot lie
I gotta go back down and I don't know why
So I'm gonna live life like I'm on sabbatical on sabbatical, no
No no
I get all pretty and I cannot lie
I gotta go back down and I don't know why
You know I'm gonna live life like I'm on sabbatical
