This is not what I had planned
The pa**ing days are not so grand
The Maseratis and the mansions
Are just castles in the sand
What I've got to get me by
Are my ambitions and a tie
I wear to work,
A well-paid jerk
I'm so successful I could cry
I work all day and still
I'm stuck here on my a**
I'd run away but
I keep smoking too much gra**
Lord, give me patience,
And I need it fast
Oh, all this, too, shall pa**
I pay my bills
And feed my face
I'm living large
In second place
'Cause I know soon
I'll own the moon
And live the life
In outer space
A rocket ship
To get me there
A golden ipod,
That seems fair
And I awake,
Oops, my mistake,
My motto still reads
"I don't care!"
I work all day and still
I'm stuck here on my a**
I'd run away but
I keep smoking too much gra**
Lord, give me patience,
And I need it fast
Oh, all this, too, shall pa**
It's not like there's too many walls
It's not like I don't have the balls
It's just that I, well I don't know how
To live my life in the here-and-now
Punch it out
It's time to go
My days are numbered
This I know
But as it turns out
No-one burns out
'Till they think
They're in control
I work all day
And take my time to smell the gra**
I'd run away but I know
I can't run that fast
Life may be short
But boy, is it a blast
And all this, too, shall pa**
This, too, shall pa**
This, too, shall pa**
