Pinch Me

by Barenaked Ladies


Lyrics:

It's the perfect time of year
Somewhere far away from here
I feel fine enough I guess
Considering everything's a mess

There's a restaurant down the street
Where hungry people like to eat
I could walk but I'll just drive
It's colder than it looks outside

It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone
And then you try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn
When you try to see the world beyond your front door

Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile
When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
Just to try to figure out what all this is for

It's the perfect time of day
To throw all of your cares away
Put the sprinkler on the lawn
And run through with my gym shorts on

Take a drink right from the hose
Then change in to some drier clothes
Climb the stairs up to my room
And sleep away the afternoon

It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone
And then you try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn
When you try to see the world beyond your front door

Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile
When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
Just to try to figure out what all this is for

Pinch me, pinch me
'Cause I'm still asleep
Please God tell me
That I'm still asleep

On an evening such as this
It's hard to tell if I exist
If I pack the car and leave this town
Who'll notice that I'm not around

I can hide out under there
I just made you say underwear
I could leave but I'll just stay
All my stuff's here anyway

It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone
And then you try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn
When you try to see the world beyond your front door

Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile
When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
Just to try to figure out what all this is for

Try to figure out what all this is for
Try to see the world beyond your front door
Try to figure out what all this is for
