Everybody's holding hands
And everybody takes their turn
I see the postman twice every week
He helps me understand
Why so complicated
Why I'm drowning
Why can't I see myself when I look in the mirror
Everybody's here and there
We don't want to wait our turn
Everybody's got someplace to be
I want to stay still
Why so complicated
Why I'm drowning
Why can't I see myself when I look in the mirror
I've eaten my breakfast
I went to bed and do the same
Or do you have a dog in the fight
It's all a game
Rinse repeat, my life is clean
And you've changed some
Why the long face
Why the long face
I get up
I read the news of other people living
I waste my own
I get along
I sing my song
It's all the same
It's all mundane
It rackets on my brain
Get off
Get off
Why the long face
I make my sandwiches for you and for me
Rinse and repeat
