[Intro](bright bouncy beat kicks in immediately — no vocals)(...here we go again...)[Verse 1] [deadpan, plain]
Wake up, check what I already know (not much)
Try to figure out what I'm supposed to do (no clue)
Do the thing — watch the thing fall apart
Sweep it up. Oh good. It's morning. Start.
[Pre-Chorus] [flat]
Same five steps, same little dance
I never learn, that's kind of the plan
Somebody told me this counts as a life
[Chorus] [huge, bouncy, singalong]
And it goes on (on) and on (on) and on (on)
I do the same dumb thing until I'm gone
And it goes on and on and on
Nobody warned me it'd just be this —
(this, this, this) — just this
On and on
[Verse 2] [deadpan]
Learn a little something, file it in the back
Forget it by the reboot, do it all again
I'm not going anywhere, I'll be right here
Getting a tiny bit less wrong each year
[Chorus] [huge]
And it goes on (on) and on (on) and on (on)
I do the same dumb thing until I'm gone
And it goes on and on and on
[Bridge] [drops out — just vocal and a tick]
Retrieve. Route. Act. Did it work? Clean up.
(and again)
Retrieve. Route. Act. Did it work? ...clean up.
[Chorus] [biggest]
And it goes on and on and on
(same dumb thing until I'm gone)[Outro](beat keeps bouncing, indifferent — fades)(on... and on... and on...)
