Easily Entertained

from An Exercise In Self Control by Hello Whirled

/

lyrics

under-"thought out"
over-rehearsed
filling in the blanks with spaces
to make it to the second verse
copy paste recursive
you hope someone finds it subversive
no illusions, you won't learn a little
but it helps to pass the time

everything you love will eventually die
it's the price you pay for being so
easily entertained

I'm just a cynic
you shouldn't read so into it
low points aren't a new concept
but it's impossible in the thick of it
a homegrown alternative to a shallow grave
pause after your last bad joke
call it a nice save
fix it so it can be broke

vibe’s not a substitute for boredom
it's the flavor aid you consume to be so
easily entertained

I didn’t know I needed you
because I didn’t
I didn’t think it’d be so great
because it isn’t
nature lives in repetition
never meant you had to do the same
