Miniboone - No Fun in the Funhouse lyrics

[Verse 1] Life is what gets put behind the leather strap at day's end The salad days are wasted wilting in the fridge (No fun, no fun, no fun, no fun in the funhouse) A dark and dusty corner of a crumbling institution This ain't no pleasure park, this is a contract bridge (No fun, no fun, no fun, no fun in the funhouse) [Chorus] Bite your lip if you feel like you wanna scream about it Have pleasant dreams (no fun) Of calmer seas (no fun) And salaries (no fun) Advanced degrees (no fun) [Verse 2] The sound of shaking hands, the grimace of the typeface The reek of drunken erudition on the breeze (No fun, no fun, no fun, no fun in the funhouse) You sold your soul to something noble and respectful It's what you asked for, now it's got you on your knees (No fun, no fun, no fun, no fun in the funhouse) [Chorus] Bite your lip if you feel like you wanna scream about it Have pleasant dreams (no fun) Of calmer seas (no fun) And salaries (no fun) Advanced degrees (no fun)
