Nines And Tens

I walk in
I hear the record player
The kids are playing video games and counting clouds
This room looks hungry because we all inhale
The remedy, the tonic leaf. It's something you might not understand

I'm hooked on caffeine cups
So I think I should get up and run around for a while
Like yesterday when I was ready
But then she turned me down
Because it's her time of the month

What's going on tonight?
Just take me to your room
Then walk me down the stairs and disappear

Well do I really need a reason why?
It should be ok to believe in something bad enough
Another topic in my life gone by
But do I really need to know it at all?

The moments you take for granted
I walk in and then you sit me down
The moments you take for granted
I walk in and then you punch me out

I'm in her room again
How far will we go?
You can feel free to stop me, even though I know you won't
Just give in this time
Relax, be cool , its fine
Everything will be alright
