High Five Lyrics

I'm back to bed, for the third time today

And take a pill if it doesn't come the easy way

It's cold outside again and you don't have a friend in this world or any other world

Breakfast tastes the same, when you're always havin' toast and gin

But don't feel shame for this or any of your other sins

It's been a trying year, be glad the end is nearly here

And there's nothing left to fear



And the kids are all in love

And it's just about enough to make you wish you'd never

Never led your childish ways

And the trouble with desire, you constantly aspire to be more than you can

I read it on the bottom of your hand



And all you talk about is work and school

It makes me cry

But giant tears well up inside your incandescent eyes

But your stories made no sense

With the order of events, well no no no no no no



And the kids are all in love

And it's just about enough to make you wish you'd never

Never led your childish ways

And the trouble with desire, you constantly aspire to be more than you can

I read it on the bottom of your hand
