about

Coming of Age is the second single off our debut album Suburban Legend, self-releasing via Thirty Tigers on September 8.

lyrics

Another gloomy Monday shows its face
And the instapot coffee’s lost its taste
And the six o'clock train’s always running late.
But if I stop now I know I’m never gonna make it.
Back to the tragedy, laugh like a comedy, Rogaine society, dial-up lobotomy.
Nine to five fantasize about the end of the day, just to wake up and do it all again.

I should have known better than to think that this could change
I should have seen the pattern, how disconnected I became
Climbing that corporate ladder. If you need somebody to take the blame. You can call me a quitter. But I’m calling it a coming of age.

A-ok. I’ll be ok. Ok ok. I’ll be a-ok.

Back to the rat race run in place.
I just spin my wheel till my my next lunch break.
And hope it gets better with a five cent raise.
But I can’t stop until I get paid.
I don’t know which is worse, the commute or the hearse.
I don’t think that it’s worth it anymore. Sick of living for the paycheck. Blow it on the weekend. I’m giving up and loading up the briefcase.

I should have known better than to think that this could change.
I should have seen the pattern, how disconnected I became.
Climbing that corporate ladder. If you need somebody to take the blame. You can call me a quitter. But I’m calling it a coming of age.

A-ok. I’ll be ok. Ok ok. I’ll be a-ok.

You don’t know what you don’t know
Until you notice nobody knows what they’re doing.
It’s all just a long shot con to get what you want.
You make the rules and you get to break them.
You set the goal post. Write the score board.
You get to choose when you get to go home. You walk the tightrope.
You let the cliff go. You get to choose if you want to just go home.

I should have known better than to think that this could change.
I should have seen the pattern, how disconnected I became.
Climbing that corporate ladder. If you need somebody to take the blame. You can call me a quitter. But I’m calling it a coming of age.

You don’t know what you don’t know. Until you notice nobody knows what they’re doing. It’s all just a long shot con to get what you want. You make the rules and you get to break them.
