Same Old Circuit Songtext
von Thomas Lock

Not gonna pretend that I′m the next best thing
When I'm a so-called artist with a familiar ring
I′ll sit in my room and try to connect the right words to make you swoon
A so-called artist presenting nothing new

It's the same old circuit that everyone's in
Just wait a minute and we′ll count ourselves in
1, 2, 3 you′re a lot like me
In the same old circuit we all race around in

Do you get words when you're walking along the street?
A late night poet but pathetic at everything
Hit every night that you can
Trying your best to expand
Just one more show and I′ll be back on my feet


It's the same old circuit that everyone′s in
Just wait a minute and we'll count ourselves in
1, 2, 3 you′re a lot like me
In the same old circuit we all race around in

Don't you know?
They never really care
Don't you know?
You′re not the reason that they′re all there

Another name on a list of five or six
It's individuals that make it worth it

It′s the same old circuit that everyone's in
Just wait a minute and we′ll count ourselves in
1, 2, 3 you're a lot like me
In the same old circuit we all race around in

Leave the same old circuit
That everyone′s in
Just wait a year and then we'll march ourselves in
5, 6, 8 and we'll alleviate
Leave the same old circuit we′re forever trapped in
