Lyrics
okay, I should have worked harder
after waking up at five, working outside with no break
lifting tents half my weight, with swimming pools for shoes
getting kisses from mosquitoes and attitude from well-to-do fathers of two
after the nine-hour work day
I should have sat down at the bench
found a pleasant melody and lyrics that make sense
rewrite and rewrite and rewrite
I'll get back to it later
maybe while I'm filling at the roastery
I should step aside, post my demos online, ask people what they like
calculate responses, make a presentation
that is optimistic, sentimental, a paid vacation
get back to my desk to see the order isn't filled
get on bad terms with the boss
get on with it, I know the drill
after a summer working full-time to pay my student loans
this dropout should have just walked home
cooked dinner, done the dishes
kiss the girlfriend, walk the dog
then stay up til three
crossing lines out of notebooks for eternity
cross the country to hear "that's not what we need"
