Carp Fishing On Valium
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.
It's impossible to stay on top
life's a never ending climb
one day you're a winner
the next a flop
I'm so over it now I don't even mind
carp fishing on valium
that's where I really want to be
carp fishing on valium
with my line out in the water
and my mind floating free
Whatever nonsense this life throws at you
you gotta grab it with both hands
whatever path I take whatever work I do
I can make it if I just stick to my plans
carp fishing on valium
that's where I really want to be
carp fishing on valium
with my line out in the water
and my mind floating free
If you love me you will understand
I gotta space out now and then
all this pressure to be superman
I can make it if I just stick to my plans
carp fishing on valium
that's where I really want to be
carp fishing on valium
with my line out in the water
and my mind floating free
