lyrics

he says that he wants pretty things in his life
what am i?
these are the times we live in
this is the age, you got to follow the rage
i know, i know the story well

you take your love for granted
looking for just a little bit more
if you'd watered what you'd planted
didn't you know it would surely grow?
you'd have your cake and eat it too

sweetened breath on body clay
smoothing the pain away
supermarket trolley race
having a bit of space
drawing straws to see who'll drive
watching our friends arrive
knowing with no need to say
staying in bed all day

and if these aren't pretty things i don't understand
i simply throw up my hands
in this land of plenty
does everything great have a throwaway date?
no way, i don't believe it's so
no way, i won't i don't believe it's so
