lyrics

‘Leap Year’

the art of doing nothing
the art of doing something you love
the art of eating, the art of sleeping
the art of waking up
the art of being proud
the act of sitting up, awake and alert

not being forgetful of anyones name
remembering everything
I will remember your name

I have too many memoirs my old friend
secrets for one another
I don’t drink to forget
I drink to remember
I’m overcome by emotionlessness
I just drink to get hungover
every state lasts a lifetime
as you surely realize

when your drunk your a drunkard
and when your angry your a menace
when your sad your a suicide
each thing to discus and analyze
I don’t drink to get drink
why doesn’t anyone realize this
I just drink to remember what its like to be drunk

Words by Shmuel Marmorstein & Todd Macdonald
