You sit there and you
think
What happened to the
week?
What happened on
Saturday?
What happened on the
weekdays?
Goals and achievements
Things to look forward
to –
All have been done;
The week is done
You sit there and you
think
Listless from the clock
Irked by its ticks
Made insane by its
tocks
And you get the feeling
like
You've been here
before
Stupefied – left
behind
Insignificant, bored
Oh, but you look at
time so human
Your life in a
continuous line
If only you could
obtain all things lost
The week would be at
your disposal – how fine…
You sit there and you
think
What happened to the
week?
Are you forgetting what
you live for?
What does it all mean?
You sit there and you
think about
Other times you thought
about yourself
About the sands of time
And their perpetual
health
And you get the feeling
like
You've been here
before
Hoo-rah! for all
existence
What a world of
grandeur
What a wonderful place
To be another spectator
The week evades your
control
As you observe
But you look at time so
human
Schedules and
time-tables for the days
So when all those pasts
are used up
You're left only to
contemplate
You sit there and you
think
What happened to the
week?
Nothing at all
Just farce and
self-deceit
What a perplexing
Vexing thing
What conceptions await
At the end of the week?
What conceptions wait
At the end of time?
How futile are we
Petty and self-inclined
What happened to the
week
Or did it ever pertain
to us?
We're so human that
We have to ask:
If we look at time so
human
What right do we have
to time at all?
What happened to the
week isn't anything
That mankind could ever
solve
