Lyrics

Uhhhh! time for me to get up. what time is it anyway? i can't see the clock from where i lay here. and the one across the room i can't focus my eyes on. where's my glasses? i better stand up and stretch. this is the day that i meet you, for the first time i finally get a chance to meet you. and i must get ready, for it is late, later than i think. where's my watch? god, i can't find anything! what did i do last night? everything is lost in the shuffle It's a rainy saturday morning But that does not please me I feel solemn and dismal First i must put on a pair of pants But i cannot decide which to wear I'll try on the black pants If i could only find them There they are! How did they get over there? I must have left them there without thinking I'll shake them out and slip them on But no, the black pants are wrinkled And there are little white spots on one leg Can't wear them! I'll have to remember to fix them up later I guess i'll just find my jeans And not worry about dressing up Can i find the bathroom? It's so dark! Where's the sunshine i was promised? Didn't i pray for a beautiful day last night? A lot of good that did There's my watch on the bathroom shelf How did it get there? I'm thinking of you As i finish on the toilet And then i wet my face I still don't know which pants i'm gonna wear Shirts are no problem For some reason i take care of all my shirts But i let my pants fall to the floor And they get totally out of control There, that feels better with my face washed That's me in the mirror, huh? Is that how i look? I gotta get going It's already 9:30 and i've got some driving to do Here in my closet are many memories of The days when we planned this meeting for today Hope you're ready for me Because i've suddenly grown out of sorts And sometimes i can't help myself My new life has made me fall behind In self-responsabilities And it takes me hours to prepare for anything There's my glasses, on the desk They must be cleaned I put on a tony bennett album And that helps to calm me down It's hard enough waking up With this special event coming up It's cold in here! Better get dressed These jeans are filthy! But they're all i can find I'll wear that new white shirt That's hanging in the closet, yeah Choosing a tie is easy Suddenly i'm ready. guess i'll leave Is everything turned off? Maybe i'll leave one light on I might not be back until late Got my money, cigarettes, lighter I better take my driver's license Where is it?? Goodness gracious I'm so untogether this morning I've got so much to think about What if the car doesn't start? Do i have your number In case something were to happen? Let's see, there it is I'm surprised i didn't lose that too I'm getting a little hungry But there isn't time for that I better go before i lose something else At least it stopped raining Now how do i get to your building? I'll just have to stop at a service station And ask for directions, i guess As i look up and walk away I realize that my meeting you is The best thing that's ever happened to me I've been waiting for this for a long time And how hard to believe that today is the day My car is soaking wet inside Why did i leave the windows down? Now my jeans are getting damp And the car won't start Come on! Maybe i'll let it sit for a minute And i'll pump the gas I've got my fingers crossed Now it's starting to rain again Oh no! I've got a feeling something's against me It still won't start Better roll up the windows & start walking I'll br drenched by the time i get there Is this what it takes Just to meet you and be happy for once? Why is this happening to me? Oh god, it's starting to pour I gotta turn back I can't take it any longer I'll just have to stay here Until someone rescues me Which might never happen This is ridiculous! I'm tired of living this way Might as well take some dope, lots of it Where did i put the pills? There it is, and there's your picture Will i ever see you again? I better call you And tell you what's going on No answer, forget it! I'm just gonna end it all All these pills will take care of me I'll just wait a little while And then, no more problems I just hope you call me before it's too late
