Cold Beer and Remote Control

all of my days have been misspent
 stuffing out the sofa and the antenna's bent
 inside my heart's bustin' out at the seams
 i work for the impossible american dream
 i got a job at the grocery store
 a few bucks an hour and not much more
 the world comes in just to take things away
 they eat it all up and then they sleep into day
 i try not to care i would lose my mind
 running 'round the same thing time after time
 only two things bound to soothe my soul
 cold beer and remote control
 now once upon a time i was nobody's fool
 (once upon a fool)
 two jobs and showing up for school
 i guess it comes apart so little by little
 you don't know your there till your stuck in the middle
 i try not to care i would lose my mind
 running 'round the same thing time after time
 and only two things bound to soothe my soul
 cold beer and remote control
 sit down
 (sit down sit down)
 the room is dark
 (the room is dark)
 the blurry graffiti on the benches
 across at the public park
 the plastic's black and buttoned
 (the plastic's black)
 the haze is blue
 (the haze is blue)
 and all i want is nothing to do
 'cause it's a long walk to the bus stop
 it's a long wait for the turning clock
 it's a two-tired car sitting up on the blocks
 and things i put aside like that pile of rocks
 i try not to care i would lose my mind
 running 'round the same thing time after time
 and only two things bound to soothe my soul
 cold beer and remote control
 yes i try not to care i would lose my mind
 (all of my days have been misspent)
 running round the same thing time after time
 (stuffing out the sofa and the antennas bent)
 and only two things bound to soothe my soul
 (inside my hearts busting out at the seams)
 cold beer and remote control
 (i work for the impossible american dream)
 yeah
 cold beer and remote control
 (i said i guess it comes apart so little by little yeah)
 yeah
