lyrics

You're down in a hole that's big enough for two well I'd follow you down if you asked me to, and everything I've seen through cracks in the door it changed me that's what I think they left 'em open for.
So I thought about my mother and father's bills yeah I thought of mixing vodka with NyQuil.
And I thought of having faith and I thought of having patience but kids today have no imagination.

Well I used to have a charming opening line, yeah I used to have a real good time.
And I was not afraid of defending what was mine, yeah I used to have a real good spine.
But unfortunately, it's gonna be my epitaph, even though I've written several drafts.
And when my family reads it, they're just gonna laugh cause some things you write that you just can't take back.

So take your bad music and take your bad drugs take your last name change it back to what it was.
And train your replacement make sure she gets enough information so you don't look dumb.
Cause we all come frozen, hard to open, so you have to let them thaw. And we have no instructions just a whole lot of buttons, so you have to push them all.

I've got no desire to be the best
I just wanna be your bullet-proof vest
They had to take your child and the heart from your chest
I'll prevent them from taking the rest
