it's a terrible shame / it's a terrible shame, I know / it's a brutal game / gonna have to let you go / I'm stuck in a rut, can't find my way out / and the sides are closing in / we don't know what tomorrow brings // it's a terrible shame / and the grass is always green / get it while you can / or get sad and then get mean / I'm stuck in a rut, in a flatland drainage ditch / and I'm drowning / in irrelevance // we don't know what tomorrow brings
