Routine Steven Wilson (Ft. Ninet)

[Verse 1: Steven Wilson]
What do I do with all the children's clothes?
Such tiny things that still smell of them
And the footprints in the hallway
Onto my knees, scrub them away
And how to be of use? Make the tea and the soup
All of their favorites, throw them away
And all their schoolbooks and their running shoes
Washing them clean in the dirty steel sink

[Chorus: Ninet Tayeb]
Routine keeps me in line
Helps me pass the time
Concentrates my mind
Helps me to sleep

[Verse 2: Steven Wilson, Ninet Tayeb & both]
Keep making beds, keep the cat fed
Open the windows, let the air in
Keep the house clean, keep the routine
Paintings they made still stuck to the fridge
La da-da, dah
La da-da, dah
La, da-da-da
La, da-da-da
La da-da, dah
La da-da, dah
La, da-da-da
La, da-da-da
