about

Recently, on Instagram, you saw a picture of a quote, a handwritten note, and you think of all you used to dream, all one day you’d like to write:

“How you spend your days, of course, is how you spend your life.”

(It got so many likes).

This is a song about your sister taking selfies, and your brother who’s so good looking, your mother who’s in the kitchen, and you, you’re stuck-- immobile--with memory’s blues again.

When will you learn to sing?

lyrics

Mother’s in the kitchen (don’t know why)
Sister’s taking selfies (telling her lies)
Brother’s so good looking (he’s never gonna die)
Me, I’m in between (staring at the night)

Old folks they walk in rings
Baby boomers now they just bump into things
Sister, one day, teach me to sing
Auto-tune: All I do is win

Mom says I got a lot of poise
I’m not like them other boys
Me and sister we watch The Voice
I think I could win. I can make a lot of noise.

All I do All I do All I do Is win

They want to live in a world no one’s made
But every cut turns you into a blade
I want to live in a world no one’s made
But every cut turns you into a blade

I wake up and I don’t know how
TV used to say can you hear me now?
Father’s approaching, the wind begins to howl
If I’m ever gonna start, might as well start now

All I do All I do All I do Is win

And they call me home but I won’t go home
No, I won’t go home this way
