The Modern Racket Lyrics

Christofer Drew The Modern Racket

(Verse 1)

Hey my friend, how do you do today?
The sun's burned out, and the skies a pale shade of gray
Our ambitions of adventure are so calmly misinterpreted
Hey my friend, what should we do today?
And I don't know why I still try

I go where I'm told but I do what I want
Passion turns to action turns to makin' a few lousy bucks
This careless philosophy might just be the death of me
But I do what I do and you don't what you don't
And I don't know why I still try

(Verse 2)

Hey buddy 'ol pal, what has been new with you?
The moon is twice full, but the darkness has you so blue
Your expectations are overwhelming but not just for you
But me too
Hey buddy 'ol pal I've had had it up to here with you
And I don't know why I still try

This modern racket rattles us around like a noisy truth
The success is just as tempting as to not giving no filthy f..cks
The dirty jokes are selling like gold on a rope
This modern racket rattles us around with no hope
Ain't I don't know why I still try
