I forget conveniently I guess
I seem to forget
I forget each week
What were we talking about?
What I was I saying?
I guess it wasn't important
I guess it's not
Ten percent
Ten percent of what?
I could slice out a pound of flesh
I think it grows back
Like the legs of an octopus
The star of a fish
The star of a fish
It feels like, it feels like
There's nothing left to do on the weekends anymore
No games 'til September
And the lottery is on Tuesday and Friday
Tuesday
Ten percent
Ten percent of what?
I could slice out a pound of flesh
I think it grows back
Like the legs of an octopus
The star of a fish
The star of a fish
Oh?
What's that sound?
Di you hear it?
Oh... Is someone there?
