Career Day Lyrics - Singles - Format

Today's been a career day 

Futures made and fortunes lost 

As I'm standing in the lobby 

Waiting for the elevator to take me away 

Up to 9 or 10 or maybe 11 

The sound of sirens fading as she whispers in my ear 

She's saying 

"It's too late to wish success, 

So get undressed and please just come to bed. 

'Cause I'm the last real thing you've got. 

You're cursed by all ambitious thoughts. 

Is that all you've got?" 

As for you, you spin a story like a 

Spider spins a web. 

See that's a metaphor, 

No wait, a simile. 

I'm still learning but I think I'm getting better. 

Oh, if I'm not tortured how are you ever going to relate. 

I've been condemned by those I love 

Wishing me the worst as I try my best. 

But she's the last real thing I've got. 

I'm cursed by all abitious thoughts. 

Is that all you've got? 

Love, close your eyes. 

And cover your ears. 

For the end is near, 

But the beginning is here. 

In with the outro, 

And out with the old. 

In with the outro, 

And out with the old. 

In with the outro, 

And out with the old. 

I'm gonna tie all the loose ends I once pulled 

In with the outro, 

And out with the old. 

Preparing for faliure from what we've been told 

In with the outro, 

And out with the old. 

With nothing to offer so nothings been sold 

In with the outro, 

And out with the old. 

Forgive me and give me one more chance to fold 

In with the outro, 

And out with the old. 

There's nothing to lose when there's nothing to hold 

In with the outro, 

And out with the old. 

...We'll be together in the morning
