lyrics

Get out of bed or let the day pass?
Turn it all over and pray it goes fast.
High hopes get you up the wall,
A broken promise to break your fall.

You manage to rise and run the routine,
Clothes, teeth, wallet and keys.
Low profile gets you down in the dumps,
And nothing seems to get you over the hump.

Now I'm not trying to say that it's not your fault.
Oh no, oh no.
Finger pointing, sticks and stones, a grinding halt.
Oh oh, oh oh.

And you try, try, try, but it's always the same.
Sometimes you feel like you're just committed to fail.
So you cry, cry, cry, but there's no one to blame -
A needle in a haystack now that ship has sailed.

A '9 to 5' to prove that you're alive,
Same swing, a different jive.
Facing into a wet weekend,
All these cats and dogs drive you 'round the bend.

Now I'm not trying to say that it's not your fault.
Oh no, oh no.
Finger pointing, sticks and stones, a grinding halt.
Oh oh, oh oh.

And you try, try, try, but it's always the same.
Sometimes you feel like you're just committed to fail.
So you cry, cry, cry, but there's no one to blame -
A needle in a haystack now that ship has sailed.

What now!?
Now bounce....
