You Don't Know What You're Getting In To

from Lazy Afternoon by Jason Wilber

/

lyrics

You back your car out of the driveway
Feels right you might go the wrong way
You don’t know what you’re getting into now
* You might think you do you might think you don’t
You might think you will you might think you want something different * for variety
* So you start out first and you wind up last
You know the little burst where you kind ran fast in the middle
* It didn’t seem to help

* No you don’t know what you’re getting into
* You don’t know what you’re getting into
You don’t know what you’re getting into now

* You can’t find the truth where it’s supposed to be
The meaning of your life the meaning of a flea
* It’s starts to seem like you missed the part
Where they explain the game and then said start
So you get the sense that you’re running behind
But everyone says no you’re doing fine
As they pass you by * you see them wink
* At one another and you start to think
That you’re paranoid or you really are behind
* You might find it’s a slippery slope
When you start to think that yes means no and
You don’t know what you’re getting into now

(chorus)

* You might think it’s gonna rain or maybe gonna snow
The wind may come and your friends may go
* The sky could fall or the sun could rise
The moon might set right before your eyes
But time doesn’t stop and time doesn’t fly
* Time could come when you say goodbye
To the hours on the calendar the days on the wall
The hands that spin and the sand that falls
In your eyes as you walk through a mystery world
* Where nothings quite right but nothings really wrong
* And far away you hear a song
That sounds familiar so you sing along (pause)
* Meanwhile on a mountain top a lone guru finally stops
