Not Today Lyrics by Lips (NZ)

I Don’t Know Why I Do Anything

2021

Worlds pass me by
I can’t quite see blue skies
There’s a flag flying somewhere down the road
Trapped in the car is a bee
He’s so far from his people
Will he ever get back home?
Mama always told me there’s an angel on my shoulder
But I’ve never seen a sign that it exists
In her mind I think she hoped she could protect me
At least somehow indirectly
But if she’s trying then she’s still not found a way
Buried at thе beach with my limbs out of reach
And the tidе soon leans in to say hello
Coke in my hand spills all over the sand
But it’s all just a part of letting go
Mama always told me there’s an angel on my shoulder
But I’ve never seen a sign that it exists
In her mind I think she hoped she could protect me
At least somehow indirectly
But if she’s trying then she’s still not found a way
At least not today
Shuffling her papers
The clerk takes my name
And I wonder how long I’ll have to wait
I’m last in line in a room full of nine
But then what does it matter anyway?
Mama always told me there’s an angel on my shoulder
But I’ve never seen a sign that it exists
And in her mind I think she hoped she could protect me
At least somehow indirectly
But if she’s trying then she’s still not found a way
At least not today
