We were working part time all the time We were banking on the kindness of strangers and loved ones And those that fall between To give us everything we need Cos we need everything It was a sing-a-long, it was inside of us Oh, oh, oh, it was a mattress in the bed where we slept Straight into d**h How we slept Well you like things that shine And there were rivers and evergreens And I, I was fine I was broke but still alive I was fine We got drunk and called in sick when we felt like it We were working part time all the time Then things got steady, we grew cautious We were trying just to gain some experience For whatever was coming next For whatever was coming next Then every motive came into question You kids have seen this all before You were watching TV and you were having some conversation About about about about All those things that you might take If there weren't any more laws to break Well you like things that shine but cannot breathe And I, I was fine I was broke but still alive I was fine We got drunk and called in sick when we felt like it We got drunk and called in sick Oh we got drunk and called in sick
