If I Ever Get Around to Living

If I ever get around to living I'm going to put my things away In the drawers and in the closets There I'll stay Stay If I ever get around to living It's going to be just like I dreamed I'm going to take the love I'm given And set it free Free If I ever get around to living I'll take the end of every day Tie it up to every morning And sail away Away Free Free Maybe it's all a dream I'm having at 17 I don't have tattoos And very soon, mother will be calling me Saying, "Come upstairs, you've got some work to do" When are you going to wise up boy? When are you going to wise up boy? When are you going to wise up boy? When are you going to wise up boy? You are hiding in your mind Working all the time Trying to make it better than you got it And you been spending all your time Searching for a sign That's never going to look the way you want it I think you better wise up, boy I think you better wise up, boy I think you better wise up, boy I think you better wise up, boy I think you better wise up, boy
