about

Without hope, we are but a lost generation of souls traversing this wild unknown called planet Earth. And sometimes we get stuff half right. So this song is about that.

lyrics

VERSE 1
She sat alone
Staring at four walls
Playing on her phone
Ignoring the dust balls
Eventually
She got up to use the bathroom
And finally
She remembered to get out the broom

CHORUS
Ohohoh!
It’s not like she used it
But at least she got out the broom
Ohohohoh!
It just goes to show
That anything is possible
We are
We are
Attempting to be responsible
We are
We are
Making mental notes of stuff we need to do

VERSE 2
Finished the jam
The jar sits empty
The garbage can
So close and friendly but,
That’s not the place
For recyclable containers
Don’t want to waste,
She just put the jar back in the fridge

CHORUS
Ohohohoh
Not exactly the goal
But at least it’s not in the garbage
Ohohohoh
It just goes to show
That anything is possible
We are
We are
Attempting to be responsible
We are
We are
Doing the bare minimum to get by

VERSE 3
She bought a plant
Had the best of intentions
She killed the plant
Waterlogged intervention
It made her sad
But then she realized that
Plants can drown
But at least she gave it a try

CHORUS
Ohohohoh
I mean it’s pretty straightforward
But I guess plants are hard for some people
Ohohohoh
It just goes to show
That anything is possible!

BRIDGE
Put away the dishes after they’re clean
Limit your intake of caffeine
Open the mail when it arrives
Do what it takes to barely survive
Acknowledge your part in capitalism
Force yourself til the work is done
Everybody lives and everybody dies
Try your best to avoid pink-eye

CHORUS
Ohohohoh
Not all lessons are meant to be
Learned by everyone
Ohohohohoh
And it just goes to show
That anything is possible!
