He's Dead, Jim

from Spring Cleaning by Headless Relatives

lyrics

Break of dawn
Stifled yawn
Another day to face
If all goes well
Brunch in hell
With a smile on my face

My best red shirt
My shoulders hurt
It's time to drop my load
Soon I'll be gone
It won't be long
You're better off all told

'Cause I'm a failure
I'm a fool
I quit the game
Can't learn the rules
I went to college
I went to school
I learned the world can be so cruel
My family pled with me to stay
But I packed up and went away
I've got nothing left
No words to say
So I get plastered every day

Drown myself in sweat and booze
'Cause I've got nothing left to lose
I've got no name
No one to blame
Because the cast is all the same
And when I die
No one will cry
And by the time the credits fly
You'll all forget
This piece of shit
Who lived just to take your hits

Yes, I'm a failure
I'm a fool
I quit the game
Can't learn the rules
I went to college
I went to school
I learned the world can be so cruel
My family pled with me to stay
But I packed up and went away
I've got nothing left
No words to say
So I get plastered every day

But the last laugh will be mine
I'll scrap the script
I'll change the lines
Reshoot the scene
Get away clean
In my best red shirt
In my best red shirt
In my best red shirt
In my best red shirt

I'm a failure
I'm a fool
I quit the game
Can't learn the rules
I went to college
I went to school
I learned the world can be so cruel
My family pled with me to stay
But I packed up and went away
I've got nothing left
No words to say
So I get plastered every day
