A million times a day I try to fail or fail to try It's an easy way to live, it's a lifeless way to die I used to hear, "Son, you've got a lot to learn" I used to hear a lot...like the slow, dull burn Of paper and tobacco and his bad breath smoke Singin' "Hey man, lemme tell you a joke" "Well what's attached to a leash that it made itself?" "The punchline is the way that you've been fucking yourself."
Sit down, shut up, it's a long ride yet I'm here to tell you something that's not easy to forget It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a goddamned shame One day until retirement, it was God's way
I'm ready or not You're here I come There's tears on my cheeks There's tears on my cheeks From being so dumb
There's proof painted on the roof And it's raining, and I hate it, I hate it, I hate it, I hate it (x4)
Things have changed forever We're the ramblin' boys of pleasure Things have changed, things have changed forever We're the ramblin' boys of pleasure (x2)
