ollie chanin - at home during the day lyrics

[verse 1]
well a bird just flew into my window, it must be too clean
now i got a dead bird wrapped up in life magazine
well there’s one black squirrel in my neighborhood, just livin’ good
but the brown squirrels don’t like him, think he’s up to no good
to the man who mows his lawn too much in brooklyn
to the newlyweds who f-ck with the blinds wide open
to troubled girl who used to give me bl-wj-bs growin’ up
now she’s out and proud just lookin’ for love

[pre-chorus]
the only ones who need me
are those around who see me
don’t matter who i am in new york
and those who p-ss right by me
don’t think a thought about me
they all just caught up with new york (ooh!)

[chorus]
find that thing to occupy your life
ignore them when they say you waste your time
if you lucky and been blessed with a choice
spend your whole life searchin’ for your voice

[verse 2]
i’ve been, starved for attention since i could read good
well the, shadows of my doubts are dancin’ on the walls of the cave
the, play-doh that i played with is dried up and useless it
must have been left in the sun for too long

i live with my, childhood hero
that’s my dad who still gets sad when i come home drunk and mad
i live in my, childhood home
and the ghosts that used to chase me up the stairs are still there

[verse 3]
sit on the same stoop, i
sat when i was two, i
see the baby next door has grown into quite the young man and
the deli where i got my dutches is selling overpriced clutches n’
i can buy you a coffee for four-ninety-nine
and now i’m grown
and my sweet old neighbor lady’s gone
they took her home, don’t even care she died alone
but life moves on, i guess that’s what they say
here’s what i think when i’m at home during the day

[chorus]
find that thing to occupy your life
ignore them when they say you waste your time
if you lucky and been blessed with a choice
spend your whole life searchin’ for your voice

find that thing to occupy your life
ignore them when they say you waste your time
if you lucky and been blessed with a choice
spend your whole life searchin’ for your voice
