Tom Williams - Lenny

Hey Lenny
Did you hear the radio today
They said the traffic's gonna be worse than usual
But not as bad as it was last Thursday
You wonder just how much time is wasted sitting behind the wheel
When you could be at other places
Seeing other places
Instead of the ones in the cars next to you
All the time that wasted but you have to face it
To get the money to the bills you pay

Oh I try
Oh I try
To see it too

Well the water seems extraordinarily clean today
You say in the midst of our first break
It's something to look forward to when you haven't been thinking at all today
Well you try break the silence With those paper airplanes Thrown into the fake plants held above your head
But the minutes tick by and your youth slips by
And only sorrow stays in its place
But lunch is good
Not bologna
A nice wrap from your chosen deli
You take the time to ponder the news
While you're eating there in the lounge
Well it's easy to dream when yours stuck in here
Trade in that cubicle for a frosty beer
But it's more
Much more
Than you could know
All this monotony eating at your soul
Till you scream
Hey world
What do you know about me to keep me in here
Cause I wanna be out
And I wanna be free
Don't wanna be a part of this misery

And oh
Oh I try
Oh I try to see it too

Oh Lenny
Don't you think I'm crazy
For wanting a way out of here
I want to see the sun before it fades away
Oh Lenny
Don't think wrong of me

Evening's here
Time to go
Back into that traffic flow
I hope tomorrow's radio is easier on you
But the wife's home
The kids are happy
Oh to see you
You're their daddy
And all the pain that was all here All seems to disappear

Oh I try
Oh I try
Oh I try to see it too
To see it too
