same old story, tell some lies
break some dishes & start a fight
same damn channel, same damn time
we're just mammals with simple lives
we spend our days in the living room
we're patiently awaiting you
chasing our tails in the afternoon
we're hoplessly in love with you
everywhere we find is a place that we can hide
from what we will never understand
every day alive is a day that we can try
to be something beautiful & true
scratch us gently, we bite your hand
you speak in tongues we don't understand
thanks for supper & tepid milk
we dream quietly, we've had our fill
