Lyrics
The New Ground Floor
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.
Get better now
Work harder now
Think straighter now
Act smarter now
Your boot straps aren't your problem
Because no one has boot straps anymore
Set your sights on the basement
Because the basement is the new ground floor
Down there with any luck
Someone just might remember you exist
While you contrast in your mind
Your workplace with the first girl that you kissed
(Is this as good as it gets?)
