The night before I set my clock to mark the place it time

The point of when I must get up and start the daily grind

听

I fall asleep in hope that maybe night time brings me rest

Yet all along I know the next day comes and so the test

听

It starts at 6 the alarm bell sounds but I will not get up

I stretch my arm to touch the ground where sits my little clock

听

I stop the sound and drifting back to sleep with thoughts in mind

I know that even though I sleep the bell will soon remind

听

So yet again it sounds its noise I struggle to my side

With one arm bent at elbow I will lift my head inclined

听

My partner always up before me serves my cup of tea

It's then I try to look alive and try to show I'm pleased

听

With rhythmic motions of my eyes I check my watch for time

Each minute that goes ticking by is stretched within my mind

听

I take some pills to dull the pain or maybe dull my thoughts

Then standing up I step into the corporate suite I bought

听

With trousers on and top half bare I reach the bedroom door

Then walking down the landing hall with carpet covered floor

听

The bathroom, ahh a place of light that tells me how to be

The mirror leads my mind to think what others want to see

听

A place to brush my hair and teeth to rearrange my face

A place of great importance when I need to run in hast!

听

Ok, I now descend the stairs and head towards the door

A porthole to the world outside to find out what's in store

听

I reach the car and sort of drop inside with words like 鈥渄amn!鈥�

The kind of things old people say, you said you won't become

听

It's then you realise the very thing that drives you mad

That annoying deaf and stupid thing you know, your mum and dad

听

So after you have weaved your way through jams of car filled kids

You kept your cool and stayed quite calm and didn't flip your lid

听

Just then some stupid woman with a giant lolly pop

Jumps out between the cars and drives the traffic to a stop

听

The kids now cross the road and seem to notice how you feel

They watch your hand begin to squeeze and grip your steering wheel

听

At last you reach your work the place that caused you all this stress

This is the place they say's the reason why you're so depressed.

听

Its also where the money comes to pay off all the bills

That reminds me on my lunch to buy another pack of pills

听

I set my brief case on the desk, switch on my PC too

Displayed are things from yesterday the things I didn't do

听

And why then is it that I do each day all that I've said

Well maybe it's with all this crap I know we can't be dead!
