Lyrics

I never did it for the money

I did it because I had a lot of time on my hands

Now I've got plans, to make more plans

All of my friends grew up and push prams

It hits you like bam, what's it all for?

Music was my life, then life got ignored

Then I lost hope, then I got broke

Then all I wrote came out as old folk

There goes my genius, blink and you missed it

Loop up the chorus, learn how to whistle it

If ya get an idea try not to fist it

It's like God whispered something insistent

Try not to block it, try not to drop it

When you get your grubby little paws on it

You gotta rock it, you gotta rock it

You got a rocket to the moon, get on it

And it might not mean that much to you

It means a lot to me, and it's got to be

Something strange and familiar, I still wanna feel it

I still wanna feel the music

As the days go by

As the days go by

As the days go by

As the days go by

My boys said "Kid, you redefine dope"

"Plus you had the presence of mind to rock the boat"

"Plus you had some hits from the rhymes in your folder"

"Had a bit of shine, and fell into a coma"

"Get back out there and do it all sober"

"Milk that shit until the cow falls over"

"Do it for the music, do it for the moment"

"Even if it never blows up, own it"

Kids these days want posters on their walls

Friends on Facebook, and ironic rap quotes

Me, I've got bad jokes, personal anecdotes

Songs for perennial underachievers

You want a revolution? Move to Beijing

You wanna get high and sing along? Then join in

It's all good, mad props

The truth of the matter, salvation is ad hoc

And it might not mean that much to you

It means a lot to me, and it's got to be

Something strange and familiar, I still wanna feel it

I still wanna feel the music

As the days go by

As the days go by

As the days go by

As the days go by

It all breaks down to pride

A search for what makes the ride worthwhile

Look for the content, look for the star

Strap your shoes on and run that mile

Keep the fire inside alive

'Cause the world gets cold and it can pass you by

You can pass on the risk, convince the hurt

But that's a real bad way for you to pass the time

I used to wanna see my name in lights

I used to wanna be the one holding the mic

But these days, man, I've got nothing to prove

And its evident it might mean nothing to you

But if I didn't do it, I'd have nothing to do

I'd probably have nothing to do with you

So until the day there's nothing more to say

I'm-a keep on singing the tune

As the days go by

As the days go by

As the days go by

As the days say goodbye

Sad boys with guitars (Know how I feel)

Birds in the park (Know how I feel)

Drunks in bars (Know how I feel)

Self sabotage (Knows how I feel)

Part-time retards (Know how I feel)

A big tub of lard (Knows how I feel)

Jean-Luc Picard (Knows how I feel)

Year 7 art class (Knows how I feel)

Your next big meal (Knows how I feel)

The invention of the wheel (Knows how I feel)

Yeah, yeah

It's just how I feel

It's just how I feel

It's just how I feel

It's just how I feel

It's just how I feel

It's just how I feel
