Shades, Spades, & Spinach

about

In the recesses of a smoothie shop, two friends wrote this tune while they should've probably been working...

lyrics

My situation’s not what my expectations thought
And the devil on my left, well he stole the robe and halo
And he’s got me thinking crazy because he’s posing as an angel
But I’m faking, I’m making him think I’m not shaking, and breaking, and aching
And I’m taking my time
I said, let me get my shades on before you break my crayons
Because you know I’ve got to be looking fresh
When you’ve got me under that pressure
You’re the one who knows me well
Well enough to know I can’t tell
When it’s about to hit the fan, so I’m whipping out my spinach can
In case things get out of hand

Today not today, there’s got to be some other way
Today not today, there’s got to be another way

Now I’m sitting here all out of whack
Fitting this toy train on its track
Shaking, and breaking, and aching wondering when the real thing’s coming back
My time is going to end, I’m waiting on a fake friend
He’s never there, he doesn’t care, lying 'cause he thinks it’s fair
The cards are in my hands, and he’s thinking that he knows the plans
But I know that he can’t see past my shades
Look at me babe
I’ve got, I got it made
