about

A song about things.

lyrics

Pot calling the weed green
It's like the pot calling the kettle black
Except the terms we speak regard leaves
The enticing scent of sulfur stimulates the senses
The peasants in the streets can't come to an agreement
But decisions are left up to the king
Is that the right thing to say, you know
With political correctness these days
Alcoholism is my form of optimism
But it seems pessimism is overbearing
So come on, sit down and share with me

If we cared about ourselves the way we expect our friends to
We wouldn't let ourselves build friendships that are doomed to fail
But we do it anyway
And then we have the audacity to sit and complain
About all the things we put ourselves through
Expecting others to care, expecting someone to do
Something about it but no attempt will resolve
Any issue until we correct the wrongs in the way we handle
Our everyday conduct

I've wasted so much time on the things that mean the least to me
It's time to shape up or ship out, I won't be dragged down
But every time I catch my breath, these murky waters get the best of me
Resistance seems so futile now
And I know I've got a long ways to go before this predicament reaches an end
And I can begin to improve my odds of making it out alive
So I can be happy for once
