[00:24.46] And I won't be connected
[00:27.44] Or be easily infected
[00:32.50] By the growing sense of self-inflected
[00:37.46] Routine in your day
[00:45.17] Could be a night-long struggle
[00:48.36] A metaphoric housing bubble
[00:53.32] Maybe find a way to pass the hours
[00:57.91] Then make some happy end to it
[01:06.65] A canon and a can of cold commingle
[01:14.61] Reminders of the day you went away
[01:25.56] Remember at your worst when you were single
[01:33.15] And at your best you
[01:35.55] seem to have had better days
[01:45.62] There's not much for you this summer
[01:49.55] I guess you'll be a local bummer
[01:55.37] Maybe find a job that won't take
[01:59.28] A genius not to do
[02:07.78] And you may get arrested
[02:10.99] Have your breath and your blood tested
[02:15.48] And be back out on the street
[02:20.16] Before your engine starts to cool
[02:29.01] Months and weeks have passed into a year
[02:37.03] And your life has changed in some histrionic ways
[02:47.85] A sentence passed is paraphrased in here
[02:55.62] And you pick up trash
[02:57.82] in the rain beside the motorway
[03:08.66] I used to know your girlfriend
[03:12.19] Back when you used to have a girlfriend
[03:18.07] She was nice and you were not
[03:21.32] But I was the big prick back then too
[03:29.34] Now she's had another baby
[03:33.65] And her life has gone sub-urban
[03:39.31] And I wonder what she thinks of
[03:43.10] When she thinks back now of you
[03:51.17] Been better times for those
[03:54.02] that are in trouble
[03:59.58] And maybe there'll be some
[04:03.12] better times for you
[04:09.85] The weight you've gained
[04:11.40] has made your head a bubble
[04:17.76] And your button eyes are brown
[04:22.42] and not her black and blue
[04:30.83] Well, no doubt I'll see you later
[04:34.38] You'll have your reasons you still hate her
[04:39.35] But my friend he says there is a change
[04:44.11] That's been coming over you
[04:52.33] I admit there is a difference
[04:55.79] And I'll submit to his assurance
[05:00.89] And I guess this is a night
[05:04.74] When things seem better than they were
