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 
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 your cares away 
Put the sprinkler on the lawn 
And run through with my gym shorts on 
Take a drink right from the hose 
And change into some drier clothes 
Climb the stairs up to my room 
Sleep away the afternoon 

Like a dream you try to remember 
But it's gone 
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 
You'll notice that I'm not around 
I could hide out under there 
I just made you say "underwear" 
I could leave but I'll just stay 
All my stuff's here anyway 

Like a dream you try to remember 
But it's gone 
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 

(I'm still asleep)
Try to figure out what all this is for 
(I'm still asleep)
Try to see the world beyond your front door 
(I'm still asleep)
Try to figure out what all this is for
