about

“Milkmen” is the second song from the ever-growing and evolving Vanilla “Sideshow” album. This song—about our vocational choices and aspirations, asks the musical question “what do you want to be when you grow up?” Well, perhaps that is a question best left unanswered...

lyrics

Eventually, we all turn out to be milkmen
Eventually, we all turn out to be milkmen

When your lion tamer dreams ain’t what they used to be
 
Simply getting by is what appeals to you and me

Left for you and me…

There’s just so many fishes living in the sea

Just so many wishes that are left for you and me

Left for you and me…


I could be an accountant, I’d sail the accountant sea
I could be a lawyer with a big retainer fee
I could be a critic, cross my eyes and dot my t’s


I could be your manager, skimming every royalty

Together we’re the pinnacle of mediocrity
