[Verse 1]

This seems to have become a trend

When did the day begin?

And how come a single soul hasn’t told me?

It appears to have become a trend

Wasting my weekends on the couch

While mountains move around me

[Pre-Chorus]

But I digress

In weight of feigning interest

To do what’s best

Grab my coat and leave the house

[Chorus]

How long have you lived around the corner?

A state of shock on your front lawn

But anxious enough to ask you

“Well, how long have you lived around the corner?”

Thank goodness that I’ve made it out alive

[Verse 2]

This seems to have become a trend

With more casing than courtesy

And song titles scribbled poorly on some poster board

It appears to have become a trend

A trailer sits in the driveway

While the brother, years younger, knows better

[Chorus]

How long have you lived around the corner?

A state of shock on your front lawn

But anxious enough to ask you

“Well, how long have you lived around the corner?”

Thank goodness that we’ve made it out alive

Thank goodness that we've made it out alive

Thank goodness that we've made it out alive

[Bridge]

I’ve been bored to death enough time, enough time today

I’ve been bored to death enough times, enough times to know that

We are what we are

And what we are is all the same

What we are is all the same

Not tired or uninspired

We could never live that way

We could never live that way

We are what we are

And what we are is all the same

What we are is all the same

Not tired or uninspired

We could never live that way

We could never live that way

Thank goodness that we’ve made it out alive

[Chorus]

How long have you lived around the corner?

A state of shock on your front lawn

But anxious enough to ask you

“Well, how long have you lived around the corner?”

Thank goodness that we’ve made it out alive

Thank goodness that we’ve made it out alive

Thank goodness that we’ve made it out alive
