I would like to find a nice way to unwind   Take off my hat and prepare for something   And wouldn't it be nice if I could put a price   On my wrist and sell it at an auction   And wouldn't it be grand, if I had a plan   Any plan at all I don't care what it concerns   I think constantly, so incessantly   Of how to free myself         Maybe paint a picture of nothing at all   Maybe write a letter to an old friend   Maybe do a thousand things I've never done before         Wouldn't alchemy be a good hobby   But making gold has no fringe benefits   Only teddy grahams know how I am   Don't give me the strength I don't long for   A new microphone, perhaps a megaphone   To make me sound better than ever   How about another day, so that I might say   How happy I am
