Get Another Routine

This is the message...
For those still trying,
To get the same tired act together...
Forget it!
Get another routine.

At least one that appears to be,
Something that is consistent...
With the way things are today.

Revisiting yesterday with determination,
Says one thing about those who attempt to do this...
A comfort has been found in the exploration of limitation.
And the growth of technology has already made many victims.

This is the message...
For those still trying,
To get the same tired act together...
Forget it!
Get another routine.

What your ancestors did,
And those before them...
Is not going to spread your mustard.
Or connect you to those hours of tomorrow,
Flashing by your eyes 'today'.

This is the message...
For those still trying,
To get the same tired act together...
Forget it!
Get another routine.

If you are waiting to taste a sandwich wished...
It is recommended you acquire another taste.
Or select something else to nibble.
It would be wise if you tried!
I'm sure your ancestors did this...
Or you would not be here,
Discussing their contributions to your stagnation.

This is the message...
For those still trying,
To get the same tired act together...
Forget it!
Get another routine.
