about

Week 12 of my weekly song project.

lyrics

You can count it down in seconds or decades
Dollars or dishes piled in the sink
Palpitations from that energy drink
The doctor said you have to quit that stuff

Well the bills are piled up in the mailbox
You're not getting any younger
I mean, sure you've got the number
But you're never gonna call it, don't kid yourself

You can count it down in seconds or decades
Doesn't really matter in the grand scheme
There was never any grand scheme
There was never any master plan

You've got to find a new plan, Your mom said
Things have a way of working themselves out in the long run
And I guess they did back then, when she was young,
but you're not even that now

You can count down in seconds or in decades
Cross-legged on the floor rolling up change
It's such a chore, it's such a pain
But you can't let it all just go to waste

You can take it downtown take it to the bank
Be polite the teller say please and thanks
hope there isn't too long a wait
Oh you can't stand to be in line

Oh you can count down in seconds or in decades
It doesn't really change a damn thing
You're still terrified existentially
And it won't make it move any faster
