lyrics

All I need is something to occupy my mind
To think is just to die
And can you show me how it's done
All I can do is go on

All I need is something to occupy my mind
To think is just to die
And can you show me how it's done
All I can do is go on

And you may think it's easy but it's not
Find a way to think it back or stop
They can really tell you how it's not

They can really tell you how to be
It's complicated properly
Thing is you've got to succeed

All I need is something to occupy my mind
To think is just to die
And can you show me how it's done
All I can do is go on

All I need is something to occupy my mind
To think is just to die
And yesterday wins you over every time

And I'm not finished not just yet
Too many things off my chest
There's a way forward can't you see

And I don't know just what they'll say
They'll leave tomorrow never pay
It's beneficial anyway

All I need is something to occupy my mind
To think is just to die
And can you show me how it's done
All I can do is go on

All I need is something to occupy my mind
To think is just to die
And can you show me how it's done
All I can do is go on
