Pool Shark Lyrics

[Verse]
Lyin' in my plastic bed
Thinkin' how things weren't so cool to me
My baby likes to shoot pool
I like lyin' naked in my bedroom
Tying on the dinosaur, tonight
It used to be so cool

[Chorus]

It used to be so cool

[Chorus]
Now I got the needle
And I can shake, but I can't breathe
I take it away, but I want more and more
One day, I'm gonna lose the war
