Freedoms - The Correspondents

How many years have you lived in a place you can’t call home

How many days have I wiled away with my two thumbs tapping in front of a phone

How much time have I lost you in powders and booze

How many minutes in a day have you been nothing and not ringing before you’re

willing to choose

You sit for less than a minute and boredom strikes

Years of our lives wasted counting likes

You’ve got your freedoms

And I’ve got mine

Let’s find new ways to

Waste our time

Important business

Do I get them in the blue or the black?

Do I need this?

I could make do, but I want something new

Rate my smile and my new shoes

Whether I keep them in my collection depends upon your views

You sit for less than a minute and boredom strikes

Years of our lives wasted counting likes

You’ve got your freedoms

And I’ve got mine

Let’s find new ways to

Waste our time

From my sofa, I shout (my sofa, I shout)

From my sofa, I shout (my sofa, I shout)

From my sofa, I shout (my sofa, I shout)

From my sofa, I shout

From my sofa, I shout

Someone else on a sofa shouts the same shout back

Windows become mirrors, your views reflect and ricochet but the mirrors don’t

crack

Many, many owls, no doubt

It’s safe with all the things that I like

Locked in a room where you think about the things that you said that you can

never take back

You sit for less than a minute and boredom strikes

Years of our lives wasted counting likes

Waste our time
