"Days" lyrics
Prizefighters when they're still in their prime
Russian novels when you find the time
Cats sleeping in a patch of sun
Go buy candy and a currant bun
Do you know how short the days are?
Do you know how short the days are?
Shot-stopping in the five-on-four
House speakers pumping four to the floor
The scene right before the surface cracks
Dusty paperbacks
Do you know how short the days are?
No, you don't
When they're gone, will you be ready?
No, you won't
Knuckleballers when they're deep in the zone
Loosening the sword from the stone
Three notes and I can name that tune
Ice cream tastes good in the afternoon
Do you know how short the days are?
Do you know how short the days are?
Do you know how short the days are?
Russian novels when you find the time
Cats sleeping in a patch of sun
Go buy candy and a currant bun
Do you know how short the days are?
Do you know how short the days are?
Shot-stopping in the five-on-four
House speakers pumping four to the floor
The scene right before the surface cracks
Dusty paperbacks
Do you know how short the days are?
No, you don't
When they're gone, will you be ready?
No, you won't
Knuckleballers when they're deep in the zone
Loosening the sword from the stone
Three notes and I can name that tune
Ice cream tastes good in the afternoon
Do you know how short the days are?
Do you know how short the days are?
Do you know how short the days are?
