Shook Ones - Birds On Ice Lyrics

Good enough isn't ok when you're attempting
to maintain this paradigm of trying to make waves
Reset the bar and how would you measure me then?
Would you see six years of riding any wave that happened to make sense?
Has self preservation made me dull?
Cause when I count how many days
that I wanna get back it makes me think of someone said

That Charlie waits for no one
Broken down in this old trend of ordinary men
An ediface of artificial weight and
Design that demonstrates only one thing
I've sat at the tip of gaining clear sight for my entire life

Has self preservation made me slow?
Cause when I count how many days that I'm obsessed with,
it makes me think of someone said
That Charlie waits for no one [x4]

From hot soup at ten of two to Marylyns last light during the evening news
What did she think she was going to do tomorrow or next weekend?
Merry are those who have never been close to the thought
That the would change if they could
