lyrics

I bought a nice guitar today
Better than my shitty one
It cost more than I’d like to say
More than a paycheck
I don’t want to touch it
I’ll just keep it in its cage

Yesterday was my birthday
I did Bikram yoga,
A green drink, and a veggie plate
Chased it with a beer
And I don’t want to hear
How I’m getting up in age

And I’m gonna die like a comet up in space
And I’m gonna wipe the red paint off the devil’s face
And since I’ve got you here I’m going to tell you it’s ok
It’s all ok

Went down a list of friends to call
Never pushed the button
Sat down and watch kids at the mall
Hustling with their clothes
Picking their dirty nose
Trying to get home warm and safe

And I’m gonna die like a comet up in space
And I’m gonna wipe the red paint off the devil’s face
And since I’ve got you here I’m going to tell you it’s ok
It’s all ok

When there’s no one in your corner
And there’s no one in the room
It’s just one foot in front of the other
Like a dumb mother fucker
And you’re still painting by numbers
And singing the same tune
And you hope for something better
But there’s no one better than you

And I’m gonna die like a comic on the stage
And I’m gonna cry when I see them purdy gates
And since I’ve got your ear I’m going to tell you it’s ok
It’s all ok
