[Verse 1]
I could write seventeen songs in a day
No one's gon' care a bit 'bout what I say
They're always gonna ask what my job is
Probably 'cause I dropped out of college
Couple kids from my town already got hitched
I still got daddy issues I ain't fixed
Think, "I'm gonna drink all my money"
Why they all look at me funny?
[Pre-Chorus]
So pour me another
One for my brother
And two for my parents
I know, they can't stand this
[Chorus]
I hate the world, no, it just ain't for me
9 to 5, no, it's just so boring
People always tellin' me things
I just wanna do my own thing
The happiest I've been's at a party
Wasted with my friends and why not?
We die, then it's over
Sucks being sober
[Verse 2]
Let me just take a sec for my best friends
Kelsey and Amy, thank God, we're not dead
Stealing street signs in your two-door
Still the same nights that I live for (Ah-ha)
Everyone's worried 'bout where we'll all be
In fifty years, I'll be here singing off-key
Faded as my jeans and I'm messed up
Chasin' all my dreams with a red cup
[Pre-Chorus]
So pour me another
One for my brother
And two for my parents
I know, they can't stand this
[Chorus]
I hate the world, no, it just ain't for me
9 to 5, no, it's just so boring
People always tellin' me things
I just wanna do my own thing
The happiest I've been's at a party
Wasted with my friends and why not?
We die, then it's over
Sucks being sober
[Post-Chorus]
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, alright
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, alright
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, alright
We die, then it's over
Sucks being sober
[Bridge]
Truth is, one day
All these wasted nights will
Turn to Mondays
And we'll be somewhere else with
New friends and old ways
A little hungover, but we're fine
But all I know for now is
[Chorus]
I hate the world, no, it just ain't for me
9 to 5, no, is just so boring
People always tellin' me things
I just wanna do my own thing
The happiest I've been's at a party
Wasted with my friends and why not?
We die, then it's over
Sucks being sober (Woo!)
[Post-Chorus]
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, alright
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, alright
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, alright
We die, then it's over
Sucks being sober
[Outro]
It's out of tune
Oh, now it's out of tune
Okay, I think we have it, no?
I kinda like it
That's a wrap
