Lyrics
Thinking Isn't Your Best Friend
You wonder why your telephone ain't ringing
The boredom seems to go on without end
Your favourite singers seem to have stopped singing
Right now thinking isn't your best friend
You're so frustrated with your life choices
There's nobody on whom you can depend
Every little thing brings on a crisis
Right now thinking isn't your best friend
Chorus
Sometimes you feel life has got no meaning
At other times you just don't see the point
You want to drift away
But something always makes you stay
And spend your weekends in this deadend joint
Verse
You're not ready to go back on the circuit
Your broken heart is not yet on the mend
You've got a 3D set but you can't work it
Right now thinking isn't your best friend
Chorus
Sometimes you feel life has got no meaning
At other times you just don't see the point
You want to drift away
But something always makes you stay
And spend your weekends in this deadend joint
Verse
You want to once again feel that you're needed
But nothing seems to go the way you planned
You feel so down, deflated and defeated
Right now thinking isn't your best friend
Chorus
Sometimes you feel life has got no meaning
At other times you just don't see the point
You want to drift away
But something always makes you stay
And spend your weekends in this deadend joint
You wonder why your telephone ain't ringing
Right now thinking isn't your best friend
