Ashtray
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can't pay the rent, the 20 bucks I made last week's already spent
The landlord's at the door and there's dried beer and cigarette butts on the
floor
Can't seem to go to work and let some fucker treat me like a piece of dirt
Get out of bed, my head is fucking screwed
And my life is really going down the tubes
I dont know what the fuck to do
Got half a pack of cigarettes and my wallet is completely bare again
I might be broke but I don't care, I just watch TV in my baggy underware
Monday morning 9:00, I gotta get out and start looking for a job
I don't want a career, I got enough to deal with here
And I shelled out my last 7 bucks for beer
I don't know what the fuck to do
I see the room before my eyes, a rotten pizza covered up with flies
This just ain't the life for me, don't wanna end up like Lenny, Jake and Jesse
Can't seem to go to work and let some fucker treat me like a piece of dirt
Get out of bed at noon, my head is fucking screwed
And my life is really going down the tubes
I don't know what the fuck to do
