Im sorry my friend if I've become drunk with power.
|
Im sorry my friend if I blame it on being drunk (Hi mom I'm drunk!)
|
Truth of the matter is I'm turning into a sexist,
|
A fucking asshole pretentious snob
|
And all the shit I talked behind your back I'm never gonna say it to your face!
|
I'm sorry my friends if we're asking for money.
|
I'm sorry my friends if its a thousand a show (Thats 14 bucks!)
|
Truth of the matter is I'm not here to make a living
|
But Jay Navaro told me once he had to feed his baby
|
So four more at the door means your putting more food in my mouth.
|
And if you help my band, well then we can be friends.
|
But I've never seen your band I was too busy drinking.
|
|
I don't wanna think about yesterday
|
And all those stupid games we played were not okay.
|
I don't wanna be that tomorrow!
|
I don't wanna think about yesterday.
|
And if we pull that shit today I swear I'll say:
|
"I am gonna be here tomorrow!"
|
|
I'm sorry my friends for this record I'm signing.
|
I'm sorry, I swear its not an ego thing (I'll sign your shirt)
|
Truth of the matter is I thought I was immune to it
|
But turns out like everybody else I'm looking for acceptance.
|
This autographs a contract claiming you'll accept my word as law:
|
"Listen to the Clash, D4, Pet Sounds, buy shirt, buy disc, posters, mailing list."
|
Yea, I know, I wasn't at the show.
|
I was too busy drinking by myself.
|
|
I don't wanna think about yesterday
|
And all those stupid games we played were not okay.
|
I don't wanna be that tomorrow.
|
I don't wanna think about yesterday
|
And if we pull that shit today, declare with me:
|
"I am gonna destroy my local rockstar!"
|
|
Can you promise me one thing?
|
Will you let me go under in a sea of my own hype
|
And if I reach for your hand to get my feet back on the ground will you please not help me up?
|
Will you just let me die in my own web of lies
|
Like money's not an issue and this music's not for sale.
|
Don't be fooled.
|
Everything's for sale.
|
|
I am gonna destroy my local rockstar!
