The Long Way to the Bus Stop

[Verse]

I leave the house at seven when I could leave at seven-twelve.

It costs me nothing but a snooze I didn't need.

There's a fig tree on Delacroix that drops things on the sidewalk

and a man who paints his fence a different color every spring.

[Pre-Chorus]

I don't take the short way. I have taken the short way.

It got me there the same and I remembered none of it.
