The Kinks

The Kinks were an English rock band formed in Muswell Hill, North London, by brothers Ray and Dave Davies in 1964.

You get up in the morning 
And every single day 
Is just a repetition 
It's always been that way 
You live alone inside your head 
Incommunicado, in the land of living dead 

Each day's a repetition 
Of the one that went before 
Like watching an old movie 
You can't sit through anymore 
Why don't you kick the habit 
And walk right out that door? 

From all the repetition 
Day after day 
All the repetition 
It's always been that way 

It's in your head, it's in your eyes 
You're boring and it's no surprise 
With all the repetition 
Day after day 
All the repetition 

They say it's time to start all over 
And call it a day 
But you go right back where you started 
Day after day 
You go right back to where you started 
Day after day, after day, after day, after day 

You look in the mirror 
Is anybody there? 
It's only a reflection 
That doesn't really care 
You're a product of your time 
Looking hard for something, but you never saw the sign 

Lock inside a prison 
But that's where you want to be 
Stuck in solitary 
And you've thrown away the key 
You say you want your freedom 
But you don't want to get away 
Then you wake up, it's time for you 
To start another day 
With all the repetition, day after day, all the repetition 
All the repetition day after day 
Another chance, another day 
You know it's time to get away from all the repetition 
Day after day 
How long you gonna sit and wait 
You're getting on it's getting late 

They say it's time to start all over 
And call it a day 
But you go right back where you started 
Da
