The Golden Seals — Note To Self lyrics

Lyrics

I’m a firecracker on the verge of getting lit
But I’ve been keeping it together for my wife and kid
Hanging by a fingernail or two (does anyone notice all of this showbiz?
Crawling by is all that I can do
On a turnpike in Ohio I confess my sin:
I’ve been coveting the neighbour’s ass again
Now is the winter of our discothèque
But nobody’s moving, nothing is grooving
I should thank you but I haven’t yet
For saving my life, and staying in spite
Of every mistake that you said was alright
And on the list goes… was it this that you chose?
Or some rosier version of me, I suppose…
Note to self: it won’t be getting any easier
