about

The original Ben Minnotte®-brand cynical rant. Enjoy...

lyrics

Well, the days are getting longer
And I'm not getting any stronger
I could tell you a thousand lies
I might take an inch, but would I try?

Where's my lady with the night black hair?
I know she's gotta be around here somewhere
When's my chance at a fresh start?
Cause I'm feelin' pretty run down and torn apart

(Chorus)
Between these walls that are closing in
If I can hold on long enough, maybe I'll win
It always seems like there should be something more
Well, don't you think it’s time for settling the score?

It used to seem tomorrow wasn't so far away
But now tomorrow seems like another day
And I'll be bearing witness to my own trial
If I don't figure out what it means to smile

(Bridge)
And in 20 years when I'm older
Hope I don't have one foot in the grave
Or become even harder and colder
Than a haggard, old road slave

Seems like all hell is breaking loose
And I can't find a way to shake these blues
Isn’t it about time I got my share?
Isn't there somebody out there?
Who cares?

(Repeat Chorus)
