Lyrics
Ray...
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.
Sometimes I sit and think about yesterday...
of all those simple words that I didn't even say.
I just sit back and wonder why...
(wonder why...) ...everything is just bought and sold,
and why everyone listens to what they're told.
No matter what you do you'll never get ahead and to everyone else you're just better off dead!
Sometimes I sit and watch you on T.V.
and I just think about how cruel it would be...
to call your family at a quarter til' four.
"Ray doesn't live here anymore..." (anymore...) Survey...
sez,
Survey sez yeah!
