lyrics

It's hot weather and the girls look better for that. Not a cloud, allowed on the weather forecast. Cats chat, chewing the fat, spewing the facts, disputing big issues and that. Unaware of the time that's passed. Without a care, long gaps – spliffs and laughs. Sit on grass, in parks and in greasy spoon caf's. Spin the wax, pull out another track. From the bargain bin dusty crates. We got all day mate, it wont be dusk 'til late. So we debate all issues of love and hate and how we wouldn't wanna be any other place. Just chilling up on park benches, any conception of stress is suspended. But still there's a sense of tension in lingering suited businessmen whom...take lunch breaks, do it al fresco. Eat their packet salads out of tesco. And although they suspend those thoughts of work, you can tell by their temples it's stressful. But I'm feeling restful amidst the rush of the cityscape, that circulate this green and peaceful place. I don't need to wake, to the daily steeple race, in which too many people pace. It's sad to see but I'm on a stress-free diet and anxiety is dropping off me like calories. I don't need the weight of a daily salary. I'd rather be broke and live naturally. But naturally the social structure has us believe we've got to plan careers even before we graduate. Ship us into a mentally static state with a passive ache. A passion we never activate coz they saturate us with images so we bang our brains against idiot box TV screens that relax the rage. My momma told me “that's the way” but that's a path I don't want to navigate. And I wouldn't be any other place...on days like these.
