We Just Get By

It's often tricky just to start your day

A whisky for the evening pain

Well, that works for some

It keeps them moving on

We never buckle to the bleak routine

We cuddle with our legs between

Well that's not enough

It could be but not for us

We're unemployed, could have avoided it

Some get annoyed when paranoia hits

You can't resist but you'd be spoiling this

Why not just enjoy it?

We just get by

Hanging on this ticking time

Till both of us start to decline

Together we can lose our minds

We just scrape through

Unconcerned with what others do

But if they had the slightest clue

Together we'd all lose our cool

When I was younger I thought I was meant

To have a house in every continent

But dreams don't come true

They changed when I met you

We keep a secret that is plain to see

Others work it out when they're wrinkly

And doused in regrets

Shake those evening sweats

We're unemployed, could have avoided it

Some get annoyed when paranoia hits

You can't resist but you'd be spoiling this

Why not just enjoy it?

We just get by

Hanging on this ticking time

Till both of us start to decline

Together we can lose our minds

We just scrape through

Unconcerned with what others do

But if they had the slightest clue

Together we'd all lose our cool
