Matt Allison - The Ramblin' Boys of Pleasure lyrics

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 Singing "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 f**ing yourself Sit down, shut up, it's a long ride yet I'm gonna tell ya something that's not easy to forget It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a goddamned shame One day left 'til retirement, it was God's way I'm ready or not, you're here I come There's tears on my cheeks from being so dumb There's proof painted On the roof and it's raining 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
