Life is a series of hit or miss incidents Never replaying always in existence It's alright Baby I'm alright You looked stressed Why don't you sit down relax and we'll talk about college plans Save for you future or else you won't have one and I should know best I'm a 55 year old man I went to college When it cost less to install a home pool I went to college When it wasn't necessary that's cool I know your future I've seen it 20 times before you you are not a person you're a number that follows my rules I know what you want And I know what you'll never have A happy life and stable income That allows you to own 17 cats You look stressed But don't even think about smoking or going to therapy Bury your stress down where no one can find it And let it all out when there is noting to watch on TV The Real Housewives Are proof that I don't need any skills All I need is a rich man To pay my bills They are my future I'll binge until I stop breathing Reject your icons and pray that you get on TV I know what you want And I know what you'll never have A happy life and stable income That allows you to own 17 cats I know what you want And I know what you'll never have A happy life and stable income That allows you to own 17 cats

The tyrannical one Doesn't pay me anymore He said experience is key When you're young, stupid, and poor I don't need his money though I'll go play on a bust street But when I'm busking I'm the target For people's garbage and receipts oh no I gotta quit this band It's going nowhere real fast And I don't care if they blacklist my ass These people drive me crazy We were friends but now they hate me And I'm starting to feel the same about them Part of me thinks He's been hoarding all our cash Buying guitars and bad tattoos And one crazy big drug stash Cuz I haven't seen a dime And this is our 3rd show this week He must be feeding some addiction In which case there won't be receipts oh no I gotta quit this band It's going nowhere real fast And I don't care if they blacklist my ass These people drive me crazy We were friends but now they hate me And I'm starting to feel the same about them No I don't want to play a show at some kids birthday party I'd rather take a bath and try to make a piece of toast I'm getting out I'm running and theres no way you can stop me And once I'm gone You'll never see me I'll become a ghost oh no I gotta quit this band It's going nowhere real fast And I don't care if they blacklist my ass These people drive me crazy We were friends but now they hate me And I'm starting to feel the same about them

Being treated nice is not a given in this world If you want respect be a little bit better to very man, woman, boy, or girl I don't care if it makes you feel bad I don't care if it makes you feel mad Thats not my problem But I'll stop when I'm dead Or I'll stop when you change I can wait for either Women must love you when you make comments like that They must think it's real sexy when you treat them like a door Why don't you just not talk today Why don't you just not plug in and play Make us all feel better But I'll stop when I'm dead Or I'll stop when you change I can wait for either You give freedom of speech a bad name Mens rights activists like you they're all the same looks like scarecrows gotta walk the yellow brick road again to find his brain Copy and paste a set of lyrics from the internet Post it on your Instagram and see what comments you'll get Oh you must be so complex But your brains like a vacant duplex no one lives in either side But I'll stop when I'm dead Or I'll stop when you change I can wait for either Paint yourself the victim when confronted at your kingdom Of fragile masculinity you make the perfect trinity You're a cringeworthy, victim blaming Why don't you just stop complaining anyhow But I'll stop when I'm dead Or I'll stop when you change I can wait for either You give freedom of speech a bad name Mens rights activists like you they're all the same looks like scarecrows gotta walk the yellow brick road again to find his brain
