Anyone can go back to sleep
So can I
If I roll over and start counting sheep
Now what does it matter anyway?
Anyone can sit down and breathe
So can I
It's not as easy to be at ease with it
Now what does it matter anyway?
Anyone can waste a day
So can I
Getting wasted gets too much of a waste in time
What does it matter anyway?
Anyone can make mistakes
So can I
If the great mistake left no trace
Does it make it alright?
Or does it matter in a way?
It don't matter much
That it does matter what matters
Once it does it's too late
Now what does it matter anyway?
Not much more than what's just a matter of that it does matter at all
I sure know how to lie on my bed
With nothing in particular going through my head
All it takes to lie down is having a back
And I sure have one
Look I'm doing it again
I should know how to get dead drunk every weekend
With nothing in particular going through my head
I sure know just how
I'm afraid it's all I know
And I'll do it again and again
It don't matter much
That it does matter what matters
Once it does it's too late
Now what does it matter anyway?
