Lyrics
Hump Day
There’s a twelve ounce glass on the polished wooden bar top
It contains exactly six ounces of beer
It’s posing like a model for a portrait
Been there so long the foam has disappeared
I asked if it’s half full or half empty
As it sat there silently without its head
I tried to think of metaphors and meaning
“It makes me thirsty” is what you said
(chorus)
I’m not sure why we’re sitting here together
We converse like we exist on separate plains
It seems I’m always searching for life’s purpose
It seems you’re always searching for spare change
(Bridge)
Are our lives nearly over, or have they just begun?
Are we here to build a house and die? Are we here to have some fun?
Do we climb upward to some unknown point and then coast down the hill?
I’ve never had the answer, I’m afraid I never will.
It’s Wednesday and the work week is half over
Just two more days till the paychecks come
You’ll drink yourself into a blackout
Monday won’t remember what you’ve done
You don’t seem to mind the absence of memory
You say it helps you travel through time
I said I think that this might indicate a problem
You said you think the problem is mine
(chorus)
