Spent years thinking He was better off bitter Loving to hate himself It's a cold cold morning Fresh pain is coming But this time he's facing it The drum comes round the corner Taking his orders He's got the whole world on his mind Temptation coming/going At twelve weeks sober He's taking it one day at a time Customers are waiting Fresh indignation But he's not tuning in He was struck by a vision Of better living If he puts a bit of work in The drum comes round the corner Taking his orders He's got the whole world on his mind Temptation coming/going At twelve weeks sober He's taking it one day at a time No longer on the common Old friends say he's lost it But he's got the sunshine in his eyes Days are plus and minus His life is just like this He's got the rest of it on his mind And you're never gonna know what the future holds And you're never gonna know what the future holds And you're never gonna know what the future holds But you're hoping that it might hold you The drum comes round the corner Taking his orders He's got the whole world on his mind Temptation coming/going At twelve weeks sober He's taking it one day at a time No longer on the common Old friends say he's lost it But he's got the sunshine in his eyes Days are plus and minus His life is just like this He's got the rest of it on his mind (How long must I wait?) The drum comes round the corner (How much can I take?) Blowing his horn off (I can't wait all day) He's got the whole world on his mind (I'm not going to pay) The world is coming/going (Go easy on the brakes) At one day older (I'm busy can you wait?) He's making it one more at a time (Turn off the radio, it makes me insane) How long must I wait? How much can I take? I can't wait all day (He's making it one more at a time) I'm not going to pay Go easy on the brakes I'm busy can you wait? Turn off the radio, it makes me insane (He's making it one more at a time) How long must I wait? How much can I take? I can't wait all day (He's making it one more at a time) I'm not going to pay Go easy on the brakes I'm busy can you wait? Turn off the radio, it makes me insane (He's making it one more at a time)
