lyrics

When I was younger I was dropped on my head
I don't remember it but that's what my folks always said
And now I'm older with a gun in my hand
I don't believe it here we go again
I started running
And thinking
And dying
To tell her the truth
I started drinking 'cuz I had nothing better to do
And now I'm wishing that I hadn't forgotten her name
She gives me nothing while I've given her everything

And when I was only seventeen
I bought my very first pornographic magazine

When I was younger I was better than this
My inspiration was the innocent hope for a kiss
And now I'm older not a bit innocent
There goes my mouth again
So/Well I decided to try it
To run it in spite of the law
I couldn't help it
No I just couldn't help it at all
And now I'm looking for the ego-boost act of applause
If only somebody could offer me this to belong

And every time things are going okay
I remember that she's got a boyfriend in L.A.

La La La

Now I'm telling you if you only had half a brain
Then you would take a chance again
Not to trouble you but everything sounds like a joke
And I only work and work

There are just so many things that I can do
There are just so many people in the world
There are just so many fishes in the sea
It gets so hard
Relax
Watch me

La La La
