lyrics
I need myself a moment
just a bit of peace
Open up the pressure valve
I need a release
The machine will have to churn a bit
without me as a cog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
Maybe play some Frisbee
maybe toss a ball
always up for eating
and maybe then a walk
Maybe we’ll just lie around
& stretch & groan & yawn
Before we even know it
the whole morning is gone
I need myself a moment
just a bit of peace
Open up the pressure valve
I need a release
The machine will have to churn a bit
without me as a cog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
Got another bill to pay
more paperwork to file
The telephone is ringing
The mail goes on the pile
Seems like I’ve been hustlin’
ever since the dawn
Before we even know it
the afternoon is gone
I need myself a moment
just a bit of peace
Open up the pressure valve
I need a release
The machine will have to churn a bit
without me as a cog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
Maybe play some Frisbee
maybe toss a ball
always up for eating
and maybe then a walk
Maybe we’ll just lie around
& stretch & groan & yawn
Before we even know it
the whole damned day is gone
I need myself a moment
just a bit of peace
Open up the pressure valve
I need a release
The machine will have to churn a bit
without me as a cog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
just a bit of peace
Open up the pressure valve
I need a release
The machine will have to churn a bit
without me as a cog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
Maybe play some Frisbee
maybe toss a ball
always up for eating
and maybe then a walk
Maybe we’ll just lie around
& stretch & groan & yawn
Before we even know it
the whole morning is gone
I need myself a moment
just a bit of peace
Open up the pressure valve
I need a release
The machine will have to churn a bit
without me as a cog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
Got another bill to pay
more paperwork to file
The telephone is ringing
The mail goes on the pile
Seems like I’ve been hustlin’
ever since the dawn
Before we even know it
the afternoon is gone
I need myself a moment
just a bit of peace
Open up the pressure valve
I need a release
The machine will have to churn a bit
without me as a cog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
Maybe play some Frisbee
maybe toss a ball
always up for eating
and maybe then a walk
Maybe we’ll just lie around
& stretch & groan & yawn
Before we even know it
the whole damned day is gone
I need myself a moment
just a bit of peace
Open up the pressure valve
I need a release
The machine will have to churn a bit
without me as a cog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
If anybody needs me
I’ll be petting my dog
