Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Is there anything left?
Maybe steak and eggs
Waking up to washing up
Making up your bed
[Verse 2]
Lazy days, my razor blade
Could use a better edge
[Verse 3]
It's enough to make you laugh
Relax in a nice cool bath
Inspiration for navigation
Of our newfound craft
[Verse 4]
Oh, I know you and you know me
It's always half and half
[Verse 5]
And we were oh-oh, so you know
Not the kind to dawdle
Will the things we wrote today
Sound as good tomorrow?
[Verse 6]
We will still be writing
In approaching years
Stifling yawns on Sundays
As the weekends disappear
[Verse 7]
We could stretch our legs if we'd half a mind
But don't disturb us if you hear us trying
To instigate the structure of another line or two
'Cause writing's lighting up
And I like life enough
To see it through
[Verse 8]
And we were oh-oh, so you know
Not the kind to dawdle
Will the things we wrote today
Sound as good tomorrow?
[Verse 9]
We will still be writing
In approaching years
Stifling yawns on Sundays
As the weekends disappear
[Verse 10]
We could stretch our legs if we'd half a mind
But don't disturb us if you hear us trying
To instigate the structure of another line or two
'Cause writing's lighting up
And I like life enough
To see it through
'Cause writing's lighting up
And I like life enough
To see it through
