Sugar plum

First thought, heard it all before
Not gonna get far with an attitude like that
It's hard to break a habit when
It's just so comfortable
And I don't know anybody round here
I sincerely hope to settle in
Let's not, make a big thing about it

They say make hay while the sun shines
But sometimes I wanna just lay around
Read a book, eventually forget about
Everything

I'm in over my head, yeah I'm over my head
I'm in over my head, yeah I'm over my head

And I know I got a sensitive h?art
I'm always picking it apart n
When I throw it to the vultures
Th?y don't want it either
Probably too sincere

Up here above the clouds and the crowds
Floating on the outside looking in
It seems like everybody's struggling
You're either drowning in the deepest sea
Or drowning in the kitchen sink
Either way it all feels like drowning

I'm in over my head, yeah I'm over my head
I'm in over my head, yeah I'm over my head
I'm in over my head, yeah I'm over my head
I'm in over my head, yeah I'm over my head

Now I'm looking forward to some brighter days
Coz I like the way that the
Shadows are falling across the trees
And I sure could use just a
Couple degrees more

And I'm doing fine, but my brain feels fried
Maybe you were right, I'm watching
Too much TV every night

By the way, I just wanna say, Yeah yknow those
Words don't come easy to me so I'm looking for
A little leniency

Ooooh, ooooh, And I write it down
On the back of my hand coz I'm afraid that
I won't remember

Ooooh, ooooh, And I learn to breathe again
And then when it's over
It'll be a new day there singing

Ooooh, ooooh, And I learn to breathe again
And then when it's over, it'll be a new day
They're singing

Ooooh, ooooh, and I learn to breathe again
And then when it's over
It'll be a new day
