Eels - New story song lyrics

The old story takes its toll
A day at a time
No wonder that I feel so old
And everyday's such a grind

Do I need magic
Wishes to make
Or is it something
I can just take?

Has it gotten comfortable?
Like an old pair of shoes

Time for a New Story
The old one was a bore
Get out of the rut now
Don't matter anymore

Don't you know there are holes in them
Gotta step on some screws

Isn't it tragic
The time that I waste
The things I ignore
That I should face

Time for a New Story
The old one was a bore
Get out of the rut now
Don't matter anymore

The old story wore me out
A day at a time
It's echoing off the walls
Bouncing back in my mind

Do I need magic?
Fortunes to tell
Or am I free to
Step out of hell?

Time for a New Story
The old one was a bore
Get out of the rut now
Oh man what a snore
