Goldfish 04:17
Is this the start of the abyss? Between the coffee machine and the office Same old small talk God damn rain How's it going? Guess I can't complain It's as if we're just goldfish Listening to old news Between chart hits Royal caught with his trousers down Minister moonlighting as a clown Round and round a bowl From IKEA chasing gold Swimming far away Different pebbles every day Morning! If you've just tuned in It's the same thing again Here on Groundhog FM Royal caught with his trousers down Minister moonlighting as a clown Round and round a bowl From IKEA chasing gold We'll find the hole one day And swim so far away

Crunch Time 04:53
So busy getting dizzy thinking Nothing gets done Now the shower is the only thing I have the power to run Everyone's the sum of their choices you said It's become an equation making white noise in my head Because in my mind it is crunch time And I'm setting up a joke With no discernible punch line The time is nigh to sink or swim Not to sit here wondering of the best way to begin Am I a thirty-something or just en route to nothing? I don't know It's no time for enquiring Because a pile of ironing Doesn't get done on its own Will I still be flicking channels on a care home television Not knowing which show is the best decision? 'One thing's for sure now that you're at the wall' 'If you don't own your choices you won't own anything at all' Said the man at the newspaper stand As I read the end of the magazine that was in my hand It said 'two paths diverged in a wood And I couldn't travel down both so I just stood' Am I a thirty something or just en route to nothing? I don't know It's no time for enquiring Because a pile of ironing Doesn't get done on its own
