MONOTONY

 

I feel so sluggish, I can’t get out of bed

I want to obliterate, to erase the thoughts inside my head

I can’t move, I got no mobility

Well it’s an enigma, it’s a mystery what’s happening to me

It’s the same thing

Oh, monotony

Gets so tedious

I don’t care, so call it apathy

Every day is all that happens

Every day is all that happens

The sky is dark and ominous

It’s so foreboding, it’s so menacing, so threatening

The future looks desolate from here

Like a clairvoyant I can see the future and it’s a wasteland from here

It's the same thing

Oh, monotony

Gets so tedious

It’s average, boring mediocrity

Every day is all that happens

Every day is all that happens

And why am I so indifferent, why don’t I care?

How do I mitigate the damage, and make it less severe

How do I rectify it, to make things right

I can’t get a handle on it tonight

Tonight

The days are uniform, they’re all the same

All this conformity, this similarity drives me insane

Nothing will ameliorate or ease the hurt

It’s all a brouhaha, it‘s chaos and I’m just about to burst

It’s the same thing

Oh, monotony

Something’s got to give

I’m impervious, nothing gets through to me

Every day is all that happens

Every day is all that happens

Every day is all that happens

Every day is all that happens

Find the words you don't know.  The test on this will take place before the end of the quarter.  Be ready NOW.
