Magnolia Original Soundtrack. Characters singing Aimee Mann's "Wise up". lyrics

It's not
What you thought
When you first began it
You got
What you want
Now you can hardly stand it though,
By now you know
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up

You're sure
There's a cure
And you have finally found it
You think
One drink
Will shrink you 'til you're underground
And living down
But it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up

Prepare a list of what you need
Before you sign away the deed
'Cause it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up
No, it's not going to stop
'Til you wise up
No, it's not going to stop
So just...give up


One of the best parts of one of the best movies. Sadness, melancholy, tiredness is shared by all characters at one part of the story where time and circonstances wash over all of them. The sharing of Aimee Mann's song is the sharing of a common message, a common cry.
