...Attitude is everything, for sure, but - that's not working anymore...

lyrics

Paisley words from 40 years ago
Speak from happy smoke today
We can go there, maybe we can stay
Spend some hours on some pillows on some floor
That’s not workin’ anymore.

Burying the bodies of the birds
When their feathers start to fade
We spoke of flying but in the end we walked
Fists and yelling as she slammed the door
Mad’s not workin’ anymore.

In his slippers on the snowy walk
Mailbox run for magazines
In the house, he's back on the couch
Now it’s mommy’s turn to fight the war
‘Cause Dad’s not working anymore.

The good news never enough
The bad news piling up
Feel like I’ve tried
Still want to fly.

I try to smile when it all goes wrong
When the fan is spinning brown
But that won’t pay to fix what’s breaking now
Attitude is everything for sure
But that’s not workin’ anymore
That’s not working
That’s not working and my soul is poor
That’s not workin’ anymore.

That's not workin' and my heart is sore...
