Hangin' Around

The Polyphonic Spree

Well you like

what you're given

a lot of us are standin' in line.

And you find

that you're missin'

what others thought you had all the time.

And it's high

but you're reachin'

the trees are getting' harder to climb.

so you try

to begin there

'cause life is such a wonderful slide.



You're hangin' around the day

you're foolin' yourself with blame

you're takin' it all to a future sight

hangin' around the day.

God only knows what you're missin'.



Well you know

where you're goin'

and knowin' is a comfortable flight.

And you're wish

is pretending

to slightly move over the light.

And you sigh

at the rainbow

that's comin' from the other side.

It's a slide

with a message

the struggle seems to give me some life.



You're hangin' around the day

you're foolin' yourself with blame

you're takin' it all to a future sight

Hangin' around the day.

You're hangin' around the day

you're foolin' yourself with blame

you're takin' it all to a future sight

Hangin' around the day
