[Verse] How can I see clearer
Through the mirror
You’re not nearer
Than myself

I tried to brush my teeth, yes
I must confess
Tears just wetsplashed
On the shelf

I tried to drink liquid from a cup
Eat cereal lump by lump
A full-grown baby that sobs
For his care got stopped

[Chorus] Routine, routine, routine, routine
Feelin’ I mean like takin’ a bath with my toaster
Takin’ a break for a swim, yeah
What’s the use of even
Routine, routine, routine, routine
Feelin’ I mean like takin’ a bath with my toaster
Takin’ a break for a swim, yeah
What’s the use of even
Breathin’ now you’re leavin’

[Verse] I tries to join the ratrace
And the worldpace
Stand the grey lane
On the bus

Well, I tried to find my way back to the mall
At K-Mart, I just fell apart
And hey, what’s in a brands’ name
For it all tastes the same

[Chorus]

Routine, routine
Day in, day out
Routine, routine
Holdin’ me down
