lyrics

Well is this where I’m supposed to be?
Is all now for the best?
Am I not trying hard enough?
Is life some kind of test?
Was there a turn somewhere I missed?
Is there a better world than this?
Think I’ll take it bit by bit
When I get around to it

Keeping up with my old friends
Checking on the folks every now and again
Ringing up and old flame from the past
Reminding me why it couldn’t last
Remembering how much time has passed

When I get around to it
When I get around to it
When I get around, oh, when I get around
Oh, when I get around to it

Someday when I’ve had enough
I’ll go to the interview my daddy set up
401k! Benefits!
Quarter-acre yard and a couple of kids
Going to be someone respectable, yes!

When I get around to it
When I get around to it
When I get around, oh, when I get around
Oh, when I get around to it
When I get around to it
When I get around to it
When I get around, oh, when I get around
Oh, when I get around to it

Well I guess I’m where I’m supposed to be
All must be fore the best
You never know whether or not you passed or failed the test
Don’t let yourself become obsessed
Worrying about everything you might have missed
‘Cause before you know it, that’s it!
You’d better get around to it

When I get around to it
When I get around to it
When I get around, oh, when I get around
Oh, when I get around to it
You better get around to it
So you don’t go out with regret
You’d better get around before you’re underground
Yeah, you’d better get around to it
Never got around to it
Never got around to it
Never got around and now I’m in the ground
No I never got around to it
When I get around to it
When I get around to it
When I get around, oh, when I get around
Oh, when I get around to it When I get around to it
When I get around to it
When I get around, oh, when I get around
Oh, when I get around to it
