Citizen Fish - Habit lyrics

I wake up every morning and think 'today's the day That takes this repetition and throws it all away' I stumble to the toilet then the kitchen for some food I cannot do without it but it's what I always do Here's the next door neighbour discarding his T.V No more life in two dimensions Less then two weeks later his face is like a screen And now he's got a bigger one - Habit retention It's a habit Well I had it And then I lost it And now I want it back again Manning the machinery and dreaming of the day He'll get to see some scenery and have a holiday And now he's won the lottery, he'll never work again Unless of course they ask him back, the cycle never ends It's a habit Well I had it And then I lost it And now I want it back again There's people out there travelling so fast it's just insane Always rushing to get back there Home is where the car is parked and then it's off again The fear of immobility? But you're just sat there! I want to throw it all away I want to throw it all away I want to throw it all away I want to throw it all away And now I want it back again Now he wants it back again You can't have it back again, no no no Habit is invisible until it falls apart Left clutching for security and groping in the dark What do we relying on so much that we get bored With having it, but losing it will make us need it more? I'm gonna throw it all away I'm gonna do something today Something that I haven't done before, it Could be almost anything I don't want to make a habit of it It's a habit Well I had it And then I lost it And now I want it back again
