lyrics

Alarm starts my day instead of a theme song
Cool montage of me staring at my wall
Building up strength for another day at work
Instead of wielding swords I file reports

It’s not the way that this was meant to be
When I was eating sugar cereal watching cartoons on tv
8 years old I could take on the world
But now I'm fully grown and I’m not even tall
What’s the point of being fully grown at all?

I’ve got no talking animals, I’ve got no six pack
Sit ups are hard, I’m in a no pets flat
No magic sword to bust the bad guys
And I always think of one-liners days too late

I sit at my desk and feel my spine compress
Send emails all day so I can pay my rent
Watching the world outside drift away
Sitting doing work at my desk all day

Well, it took about 10 seconds of listening to one track before I started thinking... "Is this really a London band? But they have the Santa Cruz sound!" Yes indeed, it's official: this is another fine example of that Santa Cruz sound we all love. Go, Slugs! Rodent
