Lyrics

I’m making deals up in my ivory tower
But I drift off at least ten times an hour
I gaze out over Lake Ontario
Imagining adventuresome scenarios

How do I go on like this every day
I talk to people but I’ve got nothing to say
I spend my time devising my escape
And I seem to do this every day

It’s a headless pin-striped business suit parade
A never-ending sea of charcoal grey
And as I watch my dignity evaporate
I drift through corporate hell in a constant daze

How do I go on like this every day
I talk to people but I’ve got nothing to say
I spend my time devising my escape
And I seem to do this every day

As an elevator drops me from my day
I remind myself that I have bills to pay
But that excuse just doesn’t make the grade
And I ring my tin cup against the bars of this life I’ve made

How do I go on like this every day
I talk to people but I’ve got nothing to say
I spend my time devising my escape
And I seem to do this almost every day
Every day
Every day
Every day
