TERRIBLE THINGS
it's someone's birthday someone's house
not keeping quiet quiet
and it's better no better than what you could have hoped for
better no better than what you thought was in store
and all you seem to overhear
is how every year's an election year
and it gets no better than what you could have hoped for
better get better man
and you get tangled up
buried in a mash-up
as you recall terrible things
you used to say and also sing
so you count your pints to pass the time
and you keep it quiet inside
and it takes so many turns just to get loose
always a "gotta" never with a "get to"
and you paddle straight past
your fellow hearts of glass
as you recall terrible things
you used to say and also sing
is it too late to paddle back?
burning from track to track
could you recall amazing things
that you could say?
