Typical Situation


main lyrics

Ten fingers counting we have each
nine planets around the sun repeat
eight ball the last if you triumphant be
seven oceans pummel the shores of the sea

It's a typical situation
in these typical times
too many choices, hey, yeah
it's a typical situation
in these typical times
too many choices

Well, everybody's happy
everybody's free
we'll keep the big door open
everyone'll come around
why are you different?
why are you that way?
if you don't get in line
we'll lock you away

It all comes down to nothing

Six senses feeling five around a sense of self
four seasons turn on and turn off
I can see three corners from this corner
two's a perfect number
but one

Well, everybody's happy
everybody's free
we'll keep the big door open
everyone'll come around
why are you different?
why are you that way?
if you don't get in line
we'll lock you away

Oh, everybody's happy
everybody's free
we'll keep the big door open
everyone'll come around
why are you different?
why are you that way?
if you don't get in line
we'll lock you away

It all comes down to nothing

It's a typical situation
in these typical times
too many choices, hey yeah
it's a typical situation
in these typical times
too many choices

We can't do a thing about it
too many choices, hey yeah
it's a typical situation
in these typical times
too many choices

Yeah, everybody's happy
everybody's free
we'll keep the big door open
everyone'll come around
why are you different?
why are you that way?
if you don't get in line
we'll lock you away

Oh, everybody's happy
everybody's free
we'll keep the big door open
everyone'll come around
why are you different?
why are you that way?
if you don't get in line
we'll lock you away
Roi

It all comes down to nothing
it all comes down to nothing
it all comes down to nothing

Oh, everybody's happy
everybody's free
we'll keep the big door open
everyone'll come around
why are you different?
why are you that way?
if you don't get in line
we'll lock you away
hey hey hey hey

It all comes down to nothing
hey hey hey hey

It's a typical situation
in these typical times
too many choices, hey yeah
it's a typical situation
in these typical times
too many choices

We can't do a thing about it
too many choices, hey yeah
it's a typical situation
in these typical times
too many choices

Red Rocks Amphitheatre
Morrison, CO


alternate lyrics

she stands
and a tear fall from her chin
and she wonders how
in all these years
and all this time
i wake up to find
it all comes down to nothing

[...]

and seven days it took to make the world
in a, in a monkey's dream
