I got up past the third snooze again I had sworn this year would be different A blackbird was singing a straightforward song And I tried to harmonize with it I suppose it's just how it goes After your thirtieth You want to believe you can be anyone But it's pretty obvious Out of the abyss And into the groove I do the same thing Again and again Finally moving I go through my pockets For a stray piece of chewing gum Aspartame, glycerin, peppermint flavour Lanolin, sodium My best ideas die quietly At the altar of laziness I suppose it's just how it goes After your thirtieth Out of the abyss And into the groove I do the same thing Again and again
