What's it like there outside With the living, with the living In a fallen down place I can hide From the living, from the living Because I don't care to stay with the living
Oh, the bottle has been to me My closest friend, my worst enemy For a fable I walked a fine line Squandered it all and wasted my time And I don't stand a chance among the living
For the lovers I've gambled and lost Count my mistakes whatever the cost I'll go off, I'll make myself scarce Oh, come tomorrow You won't find me here
Because I don't care to stay with the living I don't think I'll remain with the living
And I don't care to stay with the living No, I don't care to stay
