Lyrics

I hugged the wife and drove to work today
It was only a few miles
Was in a hurry but the lights were changing up ahead
So I stepped on the gas
I checked the Mac– I left it on over night
Downloading all the latest files
Peer-to-peer; the torrent flows into my lap
And I disconnect
We all know
(We all know– no need to remind us!)
We all know
(We all know but won't connect the dots!)
We all know
(We all know, locked away inside us!)
We are dying for tomorrow, we are living for today!
I rushed back home to my family
I got my son a brand new game
No need to cook; I picked up fast food on the way
And it's finger-licking good
Have you seen little Steve today?
Guess he's still up there in his room
But if he comes down tell him
I'll be right here just staring at the tube
Playing his game
We all know
(We all know– no need to remind us!)
We all know
(We all know but won't connect the dots!)
We all know
(We all know, locked away inside us!)
We are dying for tomorrow, we are living for today!
Don't you think it's rather warm tonight?
Especially for the time of year?
I turn up the air
Pull the sheets up to my chin
And I close my eyes
Can't relax, can't fall asleep
Should I take another pill?
I turn on the lights, light up a cigarette and smile
I've got it made
We all know
(We all know– no need to remind us!)
We all know
(We all know but won't connect the dots!)
We all know
(We all know, locked away inside us!)
We are dying for tomorrow!
We all know
(We all know– no need to remind us!)
We all know
(We all know but won't connect the dots!)
We all know
(We all know, locked away inside us!)
We are dying for tomorrow, we are living for today
