Oh calendar, be brief
Oh calendar, be sweet
Yeah, yeah
Oh calendar, be brief
Oh calendar, be neat
Yeah, yeah
So, gravity, you've come for me
When I wandered in
Hadn't detached enough
Everything about you now
When I watch you now
Going slow won't help you
And so I'll be meek, waiting
While your chest is still heaving
We're not leaving
And you're reeling from the wave
When the fugue begins to fade
Peace and quietus
Oh calendar, be brief
Oh calendar, be sweet
Yeah, yeah
Oh calendar, be brief
Oh calendar, be neat
Yeah, yeah
Every night before I go to sleep
I tell myself things
Truth be told, even I don't believe
Things will go differently
Get the feeling I'm not shaking this soon
From a distance it looms
Orbiting round me like some sort of moon
It's not leaving me soon
Every night before you go to sleep
I convince you of things
Truth be told, even I don't believe
But it puts you at ease
Can't be anything to anyone
Is the coward's mantra
Pursed set of lips keeps the song unsung
Down throat where it belong
Oh calendar, be brief
Oh calendar, be sweet
Yeah, yeah
Oh calendar, be brief
Oh calendar, be neat
Yeah, yeah
Oh calendar, be brief
Oh calendar, be sweet
Yeah, yeah
Oh calendar, be brief
Oh calendar, be neat
Yeah, yeah
