Desperate Middle Class Blues

Each week exactly like the other Each month flowing past me just like water Each year begins and ends I can't be bothered When each day's exactly the same I wake up, too early to feel rested I look down at my phone hoping something will impress me I look back up, is it bedtime already When each day's exactly the same Oh, I'm an autumn leaf Waiting for the right time To let go and catch the breeze I've got no reason to fear I'm a passive passenger I let the universe steer I got a wife, she's somewhere in this house We talk from time to time, at least I think we move our mouths We've got a kid, I don't want him to have my doubts When each day's exactly the same I got a job, I work to pay the bank When I get a little extra I put it in the tank Got an inflatable pool, sure my life feels pretty swank When each day's exactly the same Oh, I'm an egg in a nest Warm and cozy Beneath a mama bird's breast I'm a pebble on the beach If I wait here long enough I'm sure that something will find me Each week exactly like the other Each month flowing past just like water Each year begins and ends I can't be bothered When each day's exactly the same
