I’m feeling young and reckless,
but I’ve still got a nine-to-five.
it’s hard to make sure rent gets paid
and still feel so alive.
so fill my glass with champagne,
the kind from the five dollar aisle,
and top it off with St -Germain
and we’ll feel expensive for a while.
life can quickly become mundane
and start to feel a little cheap,
but it takes just a bit of magic
to remind you to still dream.
so let’s take these fancy glasses
and toast under the stars
with both the boring and the whimsical,
because that’s life-it’s where we are.
I am not kidding, this might be my favorite yet.
