It’s still dark out, but it’s time to get out of bed

Go sit in traffic, work all day and then do it again.

5 days a week you give your all from 9 to 5.

Lots got it worse and I should be glad to be alive,

But I ain’t feelin’ it. No I ain’t feelin’ it.

I hear that’s life and I realize there’s bills to pay,

But I can’t help thinkin’ there must be another way:

A lousy boss, a lousy job with lousy pay

Low self-esteem, no self-respect. It’s just another day

And I don’t know about no one else,  

But I ain’t feelin’ it. No I ain’t feelin’ it.

Now I don’t care about fancy clothes, a big ole house, or brand new cars

And I don’t care about stocks and bonds, credit scores, or credit cards.

I don’t care about Mr. Jones or keepin’ up with what he owns.

All I wanna do is feel my life. I wanna taste it all and do more than just get by!

But I ain’t feelin’ it. No I ain’t feelin’ it.

Tick-tock, tick-tock, days, months, and years will come and go.

Can you really say that where they went that you really know?

From time to time, you’ll have a few good days for sure,

But in the end, all of the rest is just a blur.

And I don’t know about no one else, 

But I ain’t feelin’ it. No I ain’t feelin’ it.

Now I don’t care about fancy clothes, a big ole house, or brand new cars

And I don’t care about stocks and bonds, credit scores, or credit cards.

I don’t care about Mr. Jones or keepin’ up with what he owns.

All I wanna do is feel my life. I wanna taste it all and do more than just get by!

But I ain’t feelin’ it. No I ain’t feelin’ it.

If you’re tired of feelin’ dead and you’re tired of what you’re fed

If you think you’ve made your bed, well that don’t mean you can’t make it

Again and again and again and again and again and again and again

If you ain’t feelin’ it. Tell me are you feelin’ it.

‘Cause I ain’t feelin’ it. I ain’t feelin’ it.

Now I don’t care about fancy clothes, a big ole house, or brand new cars

And I don’t care about stocks and bonds, credit scores, or credit cards.

I don’t care about Mr. Jones or keepin’ up with what he owns.

All I wanna do is feel my life. I wanna taste it all and do more than just get by!

‘Cause I ain’t feelin’ it. Tell me are you feelin’ it.   

‘Cause I ain’t feelin’ it.

AROUND

You told me your name. I told you mine.

Held you in my arms. Lost all track of time.

I drank from your lips, same in the sublime;

entangled, entwined we went

Around and around and around and around: 

We took a trip across the galaxy,

but we never left the ground.

Around and around and around and around:

Full of fury, full of sound,

we went around. 

I whispered your name. You whispered mine. 

Slowly in the dark, I lost myself in your eyes.

There was no more you. There was no more me.

There was only we goin’ 

Around and around and around and around: 

We took a trip across the galaxy,

but we never left the ground.

Around and around and around and around:

Full of fury, full of sound,

we went around. 

I whispered your name. You whispered mine. 

Entangled, entwined we went 

Around and around and around and around:

We took a trip across the galaxy,

but we never left the ground.

Around and around and around and around:

Full of fury, full of sound, we went around. 

Around and around and around and around: 

We took a trip across the galaxy,

but we never left the ground.

Around and around and around and around:

Full of fury, full of sound,

we went around.
