Casual Encounters

from All the World's Wars by Seagulls

lyrics

Its always been something we’ve waited for. I know
we’re setting ourselves up for disappointment,
and the road to success is a major annoyance
where i’m feeling too fond of ignorance-
and i know not the only one
that’s feeling down about the state of the world
but is at least thankful for the chance to do

what i love - i’m keeping my head down and plowing through
for the chance - we never know exactly what we have
so we make- the best of every single chance we get
til our last breath- it’s coming sooner than later

we pack away in a little room
(that smells like sweat) with three other dudes
man, this has the potential to be awkward
nose to the grindstone we emerge
3 hours later with a week’s work
while looking disgusting we’re smiling satisfied
while feeling down about the state of the world [the world we’re leaving our kids with?]
I’m feeling thankful for the chance to do.

while feeling down about the shit politicians say
and feeling down about the shit [banks do?][two parties can’t do]
and feeling down about another smear campaign
we’re thankful for the chance to do...
