Lyrics

Unnecessary Things

Double-parked her old car
Fading sun
Door ajar
She says "why walk when we could be driving?"
It's not the journey it's how we're arriving

Dirty, perfect
I forget all my plans with few regrets
She spends her money
When she's got no savings
Only get older what's the point in waiting

Doing her own thing
No banging on with dumb necessities
I finally found a girl that's loving going her own way

We ain't got time to fool around
Unnecessary things to be thinking 'bout
If in doubt
Unnecessary things always stick around
We ain't got time to fool around
Unnecessary things to be thinking 'bout
If in doubt
Unnecessary things always stick around

You should be bored once in a while
Press pause
I'm in fast-forward all the time
I'm restless, no cause, breathless
But no one's told us they're dying

You find you limit
One next minute
I'm no critic (don't take it when you can give it)
The girls keep living
But you're the villain

We ain't got time to fool around
Unnecessary things to be thinking 'bout
If in doubt
Unnecessary things always stick around
We ain't got time to fool around
Unnecessary things to be thinking 'bout
If in doubt
Unnecessary things always stick around
