lyrics

[Pissing In The Wind]
-Verse-
In terms of pride, hung out to dry
A chance of rain, so I can’t wear those pants tonight
At speed of light, my life gone by
Right down the drain, no longer have the will to fight
The same routine, where went my week?
It’s five past eight and I’m already half asleep
Kick up my feet wake up in jeans
Start of another day, just eat, work, rinse, and then repeat
-Chorus-
Just try to sing in key and pretend I have realistic dreams
I’ll barely make ends meet, but I’ll be happy at least
This will eventually be nothing more than memory
Dust of these old cds and introduce myself to me
-Verse-
We’ve yet to try, just getting by
Wanna do so much more than cover “Here’s To Life”
Push social sites or pay the price
Talent means nothing if you don’t have facebook likes
Far from unique, cog in machine
The bridge we built for you now reeks of gasoline
You’re not elite, think before you speak
And make sure to save one of those middle fingers just for me
-Chorus-

Hilarious idea to assemble an album of Ska covers of the highly esteemed Ben Folds / Ben Folds Five. Quality might differ, but highly entertaining collection! Carsten Pieper
