Resolutions
Yesterday I drank and smoked
Now today I surely don't
Yesterday I was bent out of shape
Today I'm lifting all kinds of weights
Yesterday gave into want's and needs
Today I'm setting myself free
Yesterday gave up the bad
Now today there's nothing left
Yesterday what I did
I swear today I won't miss
Yesterday the old me went away
All for the sake of resolutions made
That was all a week ago
Back to downing drinks and smoking smokes
Doing all the things I always did
Didn't take long to rubbish the list
I set down all of the weights
Except the doughnuts which I crave
Jumped headfirst back into want's and needs
As I missed them and they missed me
Made up with all I did that's bad
Not that they ever really left
Yesterday all that I did
Are back today in perfect fit
Resolutions to me are fine
If you keep yours and don't look at mine
