Well, you like what you're given

A lot of us are standing in line

And you'll find that you're missing

What others thought you had all the time

And it's high, but you're reaching

The trees are getting harder to climb

So you try and begin there

Cause life is such a wonderful slide

You're hanging around the day

You're fooling yourself with blame

You're taking it all to a future site

Hanging around today

God only knows what you're missing

Well, you know where you're going

And knowing is a comfortable fight

And your wish is pretending

To slightly move over the light

And you sigh at the rainbow

That's coming from the other side

It's a slide with a message

This trouble seems to give you some life

You're hanging around the day

You're fooling yourself with blame

You're taking it all to a future site

Hanging around today

You're hanging around the day

You're fooling yourself with blame

You're taking it all to a future site

Hanging around today
