Twist And Alignment

about

The hazards of becoming your parents.

lyrics

Your house always looks a mess
Whenever I look around it
A Salmonella breeding ground
And dog crap on the carpet
You always were the messy one
Dumped your stuff on the floor
Left your clothes wherever they lay
I could never open your door

It’s just the way you are
A twist of fate and the alignment of the stars
It’s just the way you are
Don’t bother changing - you won’t get too far

You go from one McJob to the next
But they never last
When they talk about work and commitment
You’ve got to bail out fast
Failed aspirations litter your life
You float along in a dream
Your only talent is trouble and strife
Making plans has no meaning

It’s just the way you are
A twist of fate and the alignment of the stars
It’s just the way you are
Don’t bother changing - you won’t get too far

You used to love giving orders
Even when there was no one around
You’d boss around your dolls and your teddy
Or even some stray hound
Now you’ve got kids but they don’t listen
They always put you down
They stay out late and put you through hell
It’s funny how the wheel turns around

It’s just the way they are
A twist of fate and the alignment of the stars
It’s just the way they are
Don’t try and change them - you won’t get too far
