Lowlife Lyrics
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna go out today
I'm gonna sit right here and wish the world away
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
I don't care if the people stare
I'm gonna stay right here in my underwear
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
[Verse 1]
You know I get embarrassed most of the days
When I'm walkin' 'round Camden with a smirk on my face
Put my hand in my pocket to find some change
Buy a bottle of gin to get the memories erased (Fuck, you know?)
'Cause you know what life is? It's extremely divisive
It's a fraudulent razor for you to trim your sidеs with
Young, dumb, livin' off mum
That's a line from my friend that I thought I should bum
Not all the words arе my own, but I don't want you to judge
I thought inspiration was all about fun
Life's been eating me up, it's poisoned my cup
And if I leave the house, I'll get hit by a truck
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna go out today
I'm gonna sit right here and wish the world away
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
I don't care if the people stare
I'm gonna stay right here in my underwear
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
[Verse 2]
In the world of normal people, I'm a monkey
It's painted on their faces that they think that I'm a junkie
In the way that I dress (Uh, yeah)
The people I bed (Uh)
The way I express (Ah, ah)
The things in my head (What)
I don't go to the bar (No)
I sit in the dark
I smoke a cigar
I play the guitar (Bing, bing, bing, bing)
I stay in my house
I put on my sounds
The neighbours tell me to turn it down so (Quiet down)
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna go out today
I'm gonna sit right here and wish the world away
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
I don't care if the people stare
I'm gonna stay right here in my underwear
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
[Post-Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la
Lowlife
La-la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la
Lowlife
[Bridge]
People come, people go
People high, people low
People stay, people change
People lie, people don't
I don't fulfill my potential 'cause everyone
Around me's so self-referential (Wanker)
Hypocritical, maybe, a petulant baby (What, what, what)
(Shut up)
Shut up, you're driving me crazy
Call me a lowlife, that shit don't faze me
I'm alright on my own, I don't need you to save me
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna go out today
I'm gonna sit right here and wish the world away
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
I don't care if the people stare
I'm gonna stay right here in my underwear
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
[Post-Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la
Lowlife
La-la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la (La-la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la-la
Lowlife
[Outro]
Hello, mum
Nah, I'm not comin' home for Sunday dinner
I think I've had too much to drink
I love you though

What has the artist said about the song?
I wrote ‘Lowlife’ because I just didn’t want to leave my house. I was sick of people, of games, of myself, my friends, anytime I did anything some idiot had an opinion about it. What I should do or be.
The truth is I didn’t want to be anything at all sometimes, I wanted to be nothing. So I just did...
