Descendents - Grindstone lyrics

You took the bait, bought the whole rotten ticket I know you're feeling betrayed Life showed you how and where you could stick it Maybe your trust was mislaid Grindstone grinding It's really wearing you down Shoveling dung in the daily world circus As “Chumpy,” the everyday no cla** clown They stick you up to shake you down They set you up to take you down Too late for a new bad decision The fix is already in Just keep shooting, you'll hit what you're missing But come up empty again Anger rises And it's an impotent rage Sing chapter and verse of your obsolete anthem While time and the grindstone wear you away It beats you up, and wears you down It sets you up to tear you down
