I wrote this song today. i like it.

The Life of Peter Gibbons:

Ill take a second to explain just what were singing about
Were giving lessons, mass agendas, to what we call the
Old school belief that you cant make it
If you’re too caught up in notes and rhymes
And not the new york times

So listen up and you’ll see

We’ll all be fine
Its not the first time that someone’s stepped out of line
cause what we want comes at no expense
Its not the gold or jets
It’s what makes us feel alive

Grab pen and paper, calculators, its time to get schooled
Don’t shoot the messenger, you’re blind, you see, you’ve all been fooled
(scream) Your shoddy bling don’t mean a thing if you lie dormant
Zoom out, refocus and you’ll see what’s most important
(scream) up in the firm, but your hearts so low its stepped on
we want it big, cause kid, its all we can depend on

So listen up and you’ll see
(scream) A brighter life is just what makes you happy

We’ll all be fine
Its not the first time that someone’s stepped out of line
cause what we want comes at no expense
Its not the gold or jets
It’s what makes us feel alive
With that in mind
Shout out your motives
They’re endless, don’t draw a line
Well blow the roof off this empty apartment
You’ll all be alarmed when
Were worth more than money can buy

Its not something you find

Its just a lesson
My answers, no questions
All that were doing is what makes us burn inside

I’ve never been one for office agendas
making coffee runs and late nights to spend with
faulty printers and thoughts of just giving up

I’ve always been one for nights with my best friends
counting walks of shame on the roof of apartments
we lit off fireworks just to prove were alive
well all be fine
   (its not the first time that someone’s stepped out of line)
it makes us feel alive
   (it’s worth more than money can buy)

we’re all caught up in notes and rhymes
