Lyrics

Spaghetti stains and flat champagne, 
This evening is behind us
I lay my head on the same old bed
and I dream the same old dreams

One life behind, one more to go
The autumn leaves the winter snow
It sure don't plow itself you know
So grab a shovel cuz it's time to go

Every morning's just the morning after
Every day, we're fleeing from disaster
Every night is passing even faster
Making way for the morning after

It's time that holds us on this earth
Without it we'd be floating in the universe
And we'd be nothing but a timeless pile of atoms
And there's nowhere to move if we could

So toss a log on the fire
Let me tell you bout my one desire
When this fire has burnt away
I want to start it up again someday

Every morning's just the morning after
Every day, we're fleeing from disaster
Every night is passing even faster
Making way for the morning after
