Lyrics
"GROUNDHOG DAY" - ©2013 Kevin Simnacher
It's a brand-new day
do you feel it comin'?
Seems like we've been here before--
Same ol' stuff
nothing left to say--
You're stuck in a time-loop
and it's Groundhog Day.
Feels like you're always join' thru the motions
just makin' all the same mistakes.
Isn't it time you got off that treadmill
Do you think you have what it takes?
There's a "ripple-effect"
on a cosmic lake.
You never know the impact
for the choices you make.
It's a brand-new day
do you feel it comin'?
Seems like we've been here before--
Same ol' stuff
nothing left to say--
You're stuck in a time-loop
and it's Groundhog Day.
Do you take the "fast-track" to find time to relax?
Do you work long hours just to pay more tax?
Are ya playin' it "safe" 'cause you're fully insured?
You're a fast-food junkie, heart attack on the verge...
Time to take a different route.
Eat a different food.
Think a different thought.
It could turn out good.
It's a brand-new day
do you feel it comin'?
Seems like we've been here before--
Same ol' stuff
nothing left to say--
You're stuck in a time-loop
and it's Groundhog Day.
[instrumental bridge]
[guitar solo-- (same as a regular verse)]
Chorus (3X with drum fills in-between):
It's a brand-new day
do you feel it comin'?
Seems like we've been here before--
Same ol' stuff
nothing left to say--
You're stuck in a time-loop
and it's Groundhog Day.
