Small Dark Movie

So how are things going

In the small dark movie of your life

Late at night, you call your girlfriend

In the morning you call your wife

In the morning you go for coffee

Leave town by the underpass

Leave whatever happened last night

Cigarette in a champagne glass

The road used to go someplace

You never been before

Now it's just a racetrack

And the only prize is more

The only off-ramp is up ahead

And just where ain't too clear

And change is a semi with smoking wheels

Filling the rear view mirror

You could really use a raincoat

And a pair of cool shoes

You could really use some idea

Of what you're gonna do

But the road keeps coming at you

And you find no place to rest

And in these small dark movies

No one knows what's best

So how are things going

In the small dark movie of your life

Late at night, you call your girlfriend

In the morning you call your wife

In the morning you go for coffee

Leave town by the underpass

Leave whatever happened last night

Cigarette in the champagne glass

How are things going

How are things going

How are things going
