Seems The Same
Written April 1991
Appears on Only My Hairdresser Knows For Sure
Available as an mp3

They say that December
  is just another time of the year
Sometimes I can't remember
  what exactly brought me here
And a cold wind blows my name
Somehow it all just seems the same.

Well I headed out from college
  a bright-eyed 22
My head was full of ideas
  of what I wanted to do
Got a job with a corporation
  making a couple a grand
Gonna work for that corporation
  gonna be a corporate man
But still that cold wind blows my name
Somehow it all just seems the same.

(Solo)

So now I got me an office
  with a door that bares my name
Somehow I thought I'd feel different
  but I really just feel the same
Except now I'm a little older
  got me a few dollars more
And if I ever felt like a prisoner
  well, I feel like I'm headed that way for sure.
And the cold wind blows my name
Says it like my life was just a game
'Cause no matter how much I try to change
Well, it all just seems the same.
