~Predictable~
The older I am
The older I get
Finding myself doing the same
Thing, again and again
Nothing in life
Ever much changes
I'm so predictable
But then you knew I would say this
It all has to do
With my attitude
But then again
This tidbit you knew
I wake in the mornings
Shower and shave
The very same way
I do every day
I put on my trousers
One leg at a time
First with the left
Then with the right
Same with my shoes
I follow suit
First with the left
Well, you know what I do
A bowl of Cheerios
Every morning for breakfast
I've done this before
So you know that I've got this
After all that
I let the cat out the back
Where he starts the first of many
Afternoon naps
Down on the corner
By 8:05
And just like I am
The bus is always on time
I'm predictable
In all I do and say
Just looking at me
Gives that away
I get to the office
Sit down at my desk
And just like the cat
All day I nap
Back at the corner
By 5:05
Here comes the bus
Still right on time
Make it back home
Let the cat in
Sit down to dinner
Me and my feline friend
Predictable
In all that I do
My trouser routine
Works for my jammies too
Exactly at 9
I'm tucked into bed
So I'm fresh in the morning
To do it all over again
I'd tell you different
But won't play you the fool
Cause we all know that I am
Predictable
