give me some meaning (do we care?)
to the stuff that i'm seeing...
tried the corporate ladder
only made me fatter...
maybe a little tattered
got myself a car
didn't get me far
now i'm taking transit...
got a brand new suit
spent a lot of loot
for dates i never landed
now its time to settle down
take that job and move to a new town
and focus on my earnings
and put aside my yearnings
did the marriage thing
bought a giant ring
had a couple kids
flipped a couple lids
and now i'm living vicariously
through anything i can find on tv
and wondering what my life could have been
if i hadn't spent all this time becoming me
give me some meaning (de we care?)
