lyrics

The alarm goes off on a monday mourn and I think of friday night
I woke up sleepy I went to sleep awake my blues elude my rhythm
Tired and tender on the train feeling dazed feeling vain amazed and oh so strange
The rat race bores my brain just want to be in bed again with online poker games

Life’s like that, a short play
Life’s like that, a short play

The alarm goes off at the work fire drill my boss’ smile says it’s false
And it’s been said he’ll rob me with a pen after I sign my soul
It’s all “how are you today?” it’s all saying you’re ok as you pray for holiday
Strange regrets and new friends then you leave the friendship ends
Have sex with one of them

Life’s like that, a short play
Life’s like that, a short play

The alarm goes off but the time goes on yeah the bell tolls for all
And life’s too short to be sighing to the ground through your empty aching arms to the sky
And I don’t worry what you think only I can straighten the kinks (I’ll buy that quill and ink)
Do not worry what they think only you can unchain the links (read a view from a bridge)

Life’s like that, a short play
Life’s like that, a short play
Life’s like that, a short play
Life’s like that, a short play

Before these shows we often grab a falafel, have a stab at amusing conversation and, when that fails, move onto philosophy, animal rights and red wine. Gary Crowley, a BBC DJ, sweetly said we were 'The band he had been waiting for'. ... more
