Ever since the recession, things have been really lame
And ever since my depression, I haven’t been the same
Cause I lost my job to a stoner and I lost my car to a robber
Now I’m stuck in a place I've never been before

And ever since my friends left me, I’ve been getting really drunk
And cause I dropped out of college, you could say that I’m fucked
Cause no one’s looking for a high school degree
Who would they hire? It sure ain’t me
They gave the job to someone who’s qualified!

And now, you see, I’ve sure fucked up my shitty dreams
With no way left to save myself. How can I redeem myself?
I’ve got no money, I’m broke as hell
And there isn’t anything to find over here

And cause my house got robbed, I’ve got no fucking forks
I have to eat with my hands, I look like a fucking dork
And I’m way too poor to afford another pack of sporks
Jesus Christ, can someone help me out?

Recently, I started smoking, cause I still haven’t found my car
Last night, I just stayed in watching Veronica Mars
And I know that I’ve been really lazy, give or take 3 weeks to find
A brand new job and a brand new view of life

And now, you see, I’ve sure fucked up my shitty dreams
With no way left to save myself. How can I redeem myself?
I’ve got no money, I’m broke as hell
And there isn’t anything to find over here

Now I’m jobless and in debt
Stumbling drunk, living with regret
Bought a case of smokes that I’ll probably lose
There’s no furniture in my room
I found my car, but it’s broken down
Now I’ll take the bus and go downtown
And hopefully, I’ll finally find a job I can keep

We like to drink cause we want to forget how to party
Just to wake up the next morning to do it again
Cause we all have jobs that we all hate, a constant note of our mistakes
To tell us that our dreams are dead, I wish that I could say

That I miss that days where I could sit back in my chair and reminisce
About young age and teenage angst, I wish that I was dead
But we trudge along this thing called life
No matter how hard things might get
So don’t be scared to take some risks
Even if you end up dead.
