about

I couldn't sleep this morning
I've been tired as hell all day
and I don't care about a goddamn thing this evening
I'm just waiting for it all to fade away...

Dark room around birthday candles,
Shadows below the sky,
Dark sky above the tallest glowing buildings
Dark lake beyond Lake Shore Drive

I can't leave, I can't find the way out
and besides, I've got so much left to say

I believe I've said 'hello' to everybody
But I've got a list of folks I need to thank

I hope I know what I'm doing
I hope you to as well
I make a wish 'cuz I mean business
Will it come true? I can never tell...

The man in the moon is smoking
there's clouds around his face
he says, "man, I'm in no mood for joking"
I say, "here's hoping for a 36th birthday"
