Momentary Lens from Pure Muscle by The Pleasure Centers

Take my weights on Monday
I don’t think
I can lift em anymore

take my books on Tuesday
I’m probably only
gonna ever be a bore

gimme back my weights
I’m great!
but wait!

oh, the momentary lens
plotting 2 points to my death
in momentary trends
better if you took another breath

routines and reminders are fun
but I can feel low for no reason
in momentary trends
better if you took another

Take my friends on Wednesday,
I can barely think of anything to say

Take my job on Thursday,
I feel weary and I’m barley getting paid

Give me back my friends
I’m a mensch!
then again!
