Just a moment, boy
What’s a moment anyway?
I know that life looks bad
I know the world drags you down
From the things you really love
The news is bad, so switch it off
I know that life conspires
To pull you away
But work can wait, anyhow
Perhaps it can’t, you would know
You’re a slave to the rhythm
Going through the motions
Feel that life is rising
Slowly like the oceans
Coming up to get you
You cannot go back to the start
And all the graphs are moving
Slowly to the ceiling
All the doors are closing
All the walls are squeezing
You cannot get back now
Life is not a merry-go-round
I hope this email doesn’t find you
I hope that you’ve escaped
That you’re free
Slave to the rhythm
Going through the motions
Feel that life is rising
Slowly like the oceans
Coming up to get you
You cannot go back to the start
And all the graphs are moving
Slowly to the ceiling
All the doors are closing
All the walls are squeezing
You cannot get back now
Life is not a merry-go-round
You tell me that you’re fine but these things take their toll
“When you’re a man not everything is good for the soul”
Then I don’t wanna be a man
No I don’t wanna understand
You’re a slave to the rhythm
Going through the motions
Feel that life is rising
Slowly like the oceans
Coming up to get you
You cannot go back to the start
And all the graphs are moving
Slowly to the ceiling
All the doors are closing
All the walls are squeezing
You cannot get back now
Life is not a merry-go-round
