The Future
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wake up every morning at a quarter to ten
Like: Am I dying? Is this real? Oh, right, it's this again
I'm awoken by my daughter as she jumps in my bed
I'm only kidding, I don't have a kid, I crochet instead
Am I depressed? (Yeah) stressed? (Yeah) it's anyone's guess
I'll bother getting better when I bother getting dressed
Is it gonna end? (Yeah) when? (Never) alrighty then
It's just another day of hangin' with my daughter and
I'm livin' in the future (uh-huh)
I'm livin' in the future (uh-huh)
I'm livin' in the future (uh-huh)
I'm livin' in the future (uh-huh)
Make it to the shower by a quarter to one
This bottle shampoos and conditions, it's a two for one
I draw a little doggy on the fog of the glass
Just like the ones I used to draw back in geometry class
Am I depressed? (Yeah) stressed? (Yeah) it's anyone's guess
I'll bother getting better when I bother getting dressed
Am I kinda hot? (No) what? (Nothing) that's what I thought
I bought an app to help me meditate, it didn't work
I'm living in the future (uh-huh)
I'm living in the future (uh-huh)
I'm living in the future (uh-huh)
I'm living in the future (uh-huh)
