Hey Lenny

Did you hear the radio today

They said the traffic's gonna be worse than usual

But not as bad as it was last Thursday

You wonder just how much time is wasted sitting behind the wheel

When you could be at other places

Seeing other places

Instead of the ones in the cars next to you

All the time that wasted but you have to face it

To get the money to the bills you pay

Oh I try

Oh I try

To see it too

Well the water seems extraordinarily clean today

You say in the midst of our first break

It's something to look forward to when you haven't been thinking at all today

Well you try break the silence With those paper airplanes Thrown into the fake plants held above your head

But the minutes tick by and your youth slips by

And only sorrow stays in its place

But lunch is good

Not bologna

A nice wrap from your chosen deli

You take the time to ponder the news

While you're eating there in the lounge

Well it's easy to dream when yours stuck in here

Trade in that cubicle for a frosty beer

But it's more

Much more

Than you could know

All this monotony eating at your soul

Till you scream

Hey world

What do you know about me to keep me in here

Cause I wanna be out

And I wanna be free

Don't wanna be a part of this misery

And oh

Oh I try

Oh I try to see it too

Oh Lenny

Don't you think I'm crazy

For wanting a way out of here

I want to see the sun before it fades away

Oh Lenny

Don't think wrong of me

Evening's here

Time to go

Back into that traffic flow

I hope tomorrow's radio is easier on you

But the wife's home

The kids are happy

Oh to see you

You're their daddy

And all the pain that was all here All seems to disappear

Oh I try

Oh I try

Oh I try to see it too

To see it too
