a routine day (7" single) - klaatu lyrics

verse #1:
it started off a routine day
i got through the morning in the usual way
i caught the bus on time
good morning, mr. driver, drive
as i sat inside my overcoat i clutched my cane
and pressed my nose against the foggy window pane
ho hum
the life i lead would even make a dead man yawn

verse #2:
midday comes
i break for lunch
with my sandwich and a beer i go on a hunch
to the park where i hope to find
a little bit of peace of mind
as i sat there on a bench amidst the rodent race
i felt a strange sensation that without a trace appeared
but then as quickly disappeared again

bridge:
so tell me what’s the bl–dy point of playing the game
with so much to lose yet so little to gain
you sell your life away
can’t you see you’re just a cog working like a dog
you trade your future for a dead-end job
that’s full of routine days
routine days

verse #3:
i race the clock to the end of my day
the paycheck in my pocket makes me feel okay
but was it worth the grind
just to keep from falling behind
i stand here in the queue behind a foul cigar
my face discreetly buried in a book on mars
humdrum
and i’m waiting on the pier ’til charon comes
