From the recording Granite Falls

Lyrics

There’s and empty coffee cup, sitting on a table top
It’s empty now but once was full
They call it living sensible
 
In a daze just passing time, shun the needle snort a line
We thought that real life was dull
They called it living sensible 
 
 
It’s not enough being tough
It’s not the same being sane
You’re not alone being stoned
Stoned to mask the pain
 
 
Curt Cobain was still alive, we played at every dump and dive
Pass round the bottle take a pull
We called it living sensible
 
Philosophers that turned to dust
Still burning the rest of us
Some people don’t take no chance at all
They call it living sensible
 
 
It’s not enough being tough
It’s not the same being sane, it’s natural
You’re not alone feeling stoned
Stoned to mask the pain
 
There’s and empty coffee cup, sitting on a table top
It’s empty now but once was full
