Lyrics

EVERY NOW AND ZEN -Joe Kozak

V1:
I don't want to work anymore
I work hard every day but when I get my pay I still wind up poor
Taxes, fees, even groceries, are bleeding me like some disease
Necessity is the mother of invention
But I'm too broke to pay attention

Chorus:
Life's become so complicated
Common sense has all but faded
Our privacy has been invaded
In this plastic world we created
All I really want to find is just a little peace of mind
Not much to ask for Every Now And Zen

V2:
I don't want to drink anymore
It starts out fun but by the time I'm done I'm curled up on the floor
It keeps me numb as it makes me dumb and I become so cumbersome
I might need an intervention
But I'm too drunk to pay attention

Chorus:
Life's become so complicated
Common sense has all but faded
Our privacy has been invaded
In this plastic world we created
All I really want to find is just a little peace of mind
Not much to ask for Every Now And Zen

[Bridge]

V3:
I don't want to vote anymore
The names may change but the game's the same
And "We, The People" lose once more
Noise pollution with no solution
A grand illusion built on confusion
More rhetorical reprehension
But I'm too smart to pay attention

Chorus:
Life's become so complicated
Social media dictated
Everyone got 'liberated'
In this cyber world that we created
All I really want to find is just a little peace of mind
Not much to ask for Every Now And Zen
Not too much to ask for Every Now And Zen

Zen, I've got to find some Zen
Zen, I need to find some Zen
Every Now And Zen
