Dates

I don't like birthday's, too much fuss

All the candles, what a waste

Oh with my birthday I don't need jewelry

I watch my life slip away in the evening

I need praise in winter solstice

The shortest day in the year

Day light savings, federal elections

I need new glasses with thicker lenses

The winter fell on me so quickly

And now I need a new socks

And suddenly I can't remember

What summer smelled like, like a school bus

Bus, bus, bus

Drive in the country, I see the cows

They seem happy eating grass

They have full stomaches but no weekend

When does the week end on the meat hook?

All the insects look left quickly

They get the point, get to the point

Live in the wild, sing in the night time

They don't take up so much space

I need a date to keep me going

To walk towards, to see an end

To light the tunnel, I see a pin hole

Let's use the train lamp up ahead

In my office the time goes slow

I see computers losing value

The water cooler that slowly empties

And when it's empty will there be another?

I need plates, a dining table

I want home dinners, I eat out every night

I eat sushi, I eat souvlaki

I'm sick of eating my food in the road

I want a roast chicken, fillet steak

I want it red, the taste of blood

We need more hangings and public stonings

Crucifixions, good ways to kill the time

I need a date to keep me going

To walk towards, to see an end

To light the tunnel, I see a pin hole

Lets use the train lamp up ahead

I need a date

I need a date

I need a date
