All of my days have been misspent
|
Stuffing out the sofa and the antenna's bent
|
Inside my heart's bustin' out at the seams
|
I work for the impossible American dream
|
I got a job at the grocery store
|
A few bucks an hour and not much more
|
The world comes in just to take things away
|
And eat it all up and then they sleep into day
|
|
I try not to care I would lose my mind
|
Running 'round the same thing time after time
|
Only two things bound to soothe my soul cold beer and remote control
|
|
Once upon a time I was nobody's fool
|
Two jobs and showing up for school
|
I guess it comes apart so little by little
|
You don't know you're there till you're stuck in the middle
|
So I try not care I would lose my mind
|
Running 'round the same thing time after time
|
Only two things bound to soothe my soul cold beer and remote control
|
|
Sit down the room is dark the blurry graffiti on the benches across at the public park
|
The plastic's black and buttoned the haze is blue
|
And all I want is nothing to do
|
|
'Cause it's a long walk to the bus stop
|
It's a long wait for the turning clock
|
A two-tired car sitting up on the blocks
|
And things I put aside like that pile of rocks
|
|
I try not to care I would lose my mind
|
Running 'round the same thing time after time
|
Only two things bound to soothe my soul cold beer and remote control
|
|
I try not to care I would lose my mind
|
Running 'round the same thing time after time
|
Only two things bound to soothe my soul
|
Cold beer and remote control
|
