The Next Day

They got my number down

They know how tight to twist

One day they'll claim me

'til then I'll be here

Tic-toc the hour goes

Junk food, junk TV shows

I can't remember

One thing I took in

Everyday I promise that

I will change the next day

New Years came

and everybody took the same vow

We get it, better start it now

Awaken by degrees

Information as disease

The march of progress is

kicking me lifeless

Good God, look at what we've lost

Built on a holocaust

Gave beads and blankets

for what was priceless

Everyday I promise that

I will change the next day

New Years came

and everybody took the same vow

We get it, better start it now

Things are gonna change this time

Things are gonna change

Every empire has its day, then it fades

Things are gonna change

Things are gonna change

How come it got so bad?

The noblest experiment

Maybe it's all done

We'll start a new one

Everyday I promise that

I will change the next day

New Years came

and everybody took the same vow

We get it, better start it now

Better start it now

Start the next day...
