Stuck In The Loop (Don't Get)
Bill Borman

So you woke up at the end one day
And your pieces remained but the game had changed
But you knew that you'd been told
Where the pieces are meant to go

So you traded in your wishes for gold
So all your wishes were sold
For a place in the mould

But the place is a space that you'd rather let go
And you're the same, I know

Yeah, you're the same
Yeah, you're the same
Yeah, you're the same, I know

BRIDGE
All the others are stuck in a loop
Singing the same old line
Maybe if we just do a little more work
We'll have a little more free time

CHORUS
Hopes and dreams and time and money
Conform to know your jokes are funny
Expectation, that's the joke
Yet the human race still runs on hope

When they wrote a review of you
They used words to describe you that you'd never use
And they hinted at fame, but they don't leave their names
And your pieces still don't work with this game

So it seemed they might not be right
This conformist, calm collected life
Was a sign of the times where the fine was sublime
With a simple but shallow goal.

So you gave up all your wishful gold
For a brand new hope on a brand new road
And it looks the same
Yeah, it looks the same
But you don't know where it goes

And the best thing about it
Is you don't know where it goes

BRIDGE

CHORUS
Hopes and dreams and time and money
(Maybe if we work more, make more money)
Conform to know your jokes are funny
(All of our jokes will be a little more funny)
Expectation, that's the joke
(Everyone knows the one)
Yet the human race still runs on ...
(About the man, who said ...)
