Munchin' on a ham and cheese sando in the mornin on friday

Cruisin down the pacific highway Thinkin bout the day ahead

I paid the rent check got my registration & phone bill

If those two dont overthrow me the dogs will

But heck at least i know the taste of bread

Why do i seem to spend my whole damn life chasing paper

I'm like an actor turned singer turned waiter

I'll wait around untill i meet with my maker

(Then i'll sign up for A.A or something)

I just wish there was some other way to get myself somewhere

This little strip of earth and all that i've done there

I'm like a bullant on the leg of a sunchair

Under a magnifying glass

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So i can get over myself

On my own i'm wasting my time

I take a phonecall on the mobile while i'm checkin the meter

One sec i need to turn up that little speaker

It's gettin noisy in this little town

We're like america we love to make a hoo-har of jack $h!t

I never ever really seemed to fit

But now i'm stuck - so deep in all of this

Come to think of it i might as well be travelling backwards

Its been an hour and i'm only in Chatswood

I hate the way that i'm becoming a product

Go pick me up for $24.95

I'm on sale and its retail in the world of deception

You can treat a man if he can't get erections

is there a pill for my lack of direction

Thanks mate I'll have a pack of those

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So i can get over myself

On my own i'm wasting my time

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So i can get over myself

On my own i'm losing my mind

Its all good i got a broom and a cheap persian rig now

I can sweep the whole thing out on the side now

Out of sight out of mind

I keep on going until i'm pushing 30 to 40

and as long as i don't do something naughty

I love my wife, what a life

She comes home to find me spread on the floor

From blood poisoning, i've popped a whole lot of pills

and i'm shaking and theres a needle stickin out

of my arm i aint fakin, i'm zoning in and zoning out

You wanna help me don't call me an ambulance honey

Just get a silver service cab this is funny

Theres one passenger please goin up my own ass

You take credit card f!*k this

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So i can get over myself

On my own i'm wasting my time

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So i can get over myself

On my own i'm losing my mind

Yeah I wish somebody would build a bridge

So i can get over myself

On my own i'm wasting my time (I'm wasting my life)

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So i can get over myself

On my own i'm losing my mind
