The Ramblin' Boys of Pleasure - The Lawrence Arms

a million times a day

i try to fail or fail to try

it’s an easy way to live

it’s a lifeless way to die

i used to hear

«son, you’ve got a lot to learn»

i used to hear a lot

like the slow dull burn

of paper and tobacco

his bad breath smoke

singin'"hey man, let me tell you a joke"

well what’s attached to a leash

that it made itself

the punchline is the way

that you’ve been fuckin’yourself

sit down, shut up it’s a long ride here

i’m gonna tell ya something

that’s not easy to forget

it’s a bird, it’s a plane

it’s a god damn shame

one day into retirement

he worked past way

i’m ready or not

you’re here, i come

there’s tears on my cheeks

(there's tears on my cheeks)

they’ll be here, so damp

there’s proof

painted on the roof

and it’s rainin'

and i hate it i hate it i hate it i hate it things have changed forever

we’re the ramblin’boys of pleasure

things have changed

things have changed forever

we’re the ramblin’boys of pleasure
