time is running out they said
set your goals for the day
plan for twenty years ahead
until you turn into furniture
no rewards and no regrets
let us know if you’re interested
in learning yet another way
to bang your head against the table
mayday
something’s happening
close the drapes, make everybody leave
mayday
something’s happening
hey now, here’s your safety kit
walls that crumble, shoes that never fit
birthdays, breakups, football, politics
pointless, useless
dishes piling up my sink
and all my friends have gone missing
and every morning there’s a trail
of muddy footprints on my ceiling
mayday
something’s happening
close the drapes. make everybody leave
mayday
something’s happening
hey now, here’s your safety kit
dreams that crumble, shoes that never fit
birthdays, breakups, football, politics
pointless, useless
time is running out they said
dozen exits, no escape

now that it’s so close you choose not to listen
what are the odds of us making ends meet
good luck seeking the shade on the back of the sun
now that it’s long gone you’re happy by default
a handful of almosts and plenty of ifs
good luck seeking the shade on the back of the sun
goodbye ursa major
years and years of saving for a rainy day
begging for a discount
drop it on the porch, I’m no longer here
no one saw this coming, no one thought it through
it’s early in the day but so far so good
