I know what to do
And I know just how to do it
Get my phone out my pocket
Press and say: ‘what about it?’
‘What’s up, how are you doing?’
‘What’s up and what’s cooking?’
But why do today what I can do tomorrow?
Why do anything before tomorrow?
Is there at all some time to be borrowed?
What’s up, how are you doing?
What’s up and what’s cooking?
I’m just standing here
blocking my way home
I’m losing my heart fast
it’s monotone sounds bad
But nothing gets done man
for ever halfway there
And all the while the leaves are falling
The snow is cracking
The seeds are hatching
and the sun goes out till late at night
And I’m just watching it
I’m just watching it go by
Bye-bye man Bye-bye man
