The Lawrence Arms
The Ramblin’ Boys of Pleasure
A million times a day, I try to fail or fail to try
It's an easy way to live, it's a lifeless way to die
I used to hear "Son, you've got a lot to learn"
I used to hear a lot like the slow dull burn
Of paper and tobacco, his bad breath smoke
Singing "Hey man, let me tell you a joke"
Well, what's attached to a leash that it made itself?
The punchline is the way that you've been fucking yourself
Sit down, shut up, it's a long ride yet
I'm gonna tell ya something that's not easy to forget
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a goddamned shame
One day left 'til retirement, it was God's way
I'm ready or not, you're here I come
There's tears on my cheeks from being so dumb
There's proof painted
On the roof and it's raining
And I hate it, I hate it
I hate it, I hate it
Things have changed forever
We're the ramblin' boys of pleasure
Things have changed, things have changed forever
We're the ramblin' boys of pleasure
