lyrics

Ain’t got no money can’t buy no food
My stomach’s shrunk and so my shoes have too
My fortune’s gone on records and beer
Some I feel the rest I think I hear

The rent was due the lights went out
I said hey what the hell is this about?
Noone would answer, I think I could hear
The cackle of laughter, the tension the fear
 Hey hey, you’ve been blown out
Completely useless so you shout
Hey, hey your life is zip
Amounted to nothing since you were a kid

Lying there on your bed
Plastic bag over my head
You’ll get a surprise when you get home
To find I’m dead, you’re all alone

Worked all last summer, this summer too
Going to make new years in my army boots
After hard traveling things need to go my way
If they don’t I’ll go insane

The pot was empty the cupboard bare
I said hey what the hell’s going on here
One of these day and it won’t be long
You’ll call my name and I’ll be gone.

Hey hey, you’ve been blown out
Completely useless so you shout
Hey, hey your life is zip
Amounted to nothing since you were a kid
