No, this isn't what you were expecting; then again, whatever is?
A man too busy reflecting can miss out on what is his:
A chance to right each other's wrongs
perchance by writing simple songs,
but who will listen if I haven't got a clue?
It's just a day in the life I've been living for so long, and so have you,
and neither one of us can figure out its meaning...
Just a day in the life in which we have so long to go, or maybe not.
Either way, I think I'll have another beer,
and since you're here, I think you'd better have one, too.
I'd love to turn you on...
I'm sure you heard the news today about the lucky man who made the grade.
I'm sure you knew that he got screwed without the benefit of getting laid.
But if two wrongs don't make a right,
and if I'd rather run than fight,
it might just mean that I've got better things to do
It's just a day in the life I've been living for so long, and so have you,
and neither one of us can see just where it's leading...
Just a day in the life in which we have so long to go, or maybe not.
Either way I think I'll have another beer,
and since you're here, I think you'd better have one, too,
and then we'll laugh until we're blue.
