The new boss didn't like my attitude
I could have been nicer but she was an old prude
She wrote me up and fired me to win our little feud
And I sucked down pogey for the last half-year
I Feel like nothing from doing nothing
I'm handing out random resumes to start my new career 'cause
I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I'll climb above the pain and the shame and the fear
'Cause I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I gained thirty pounds since I lost my job
Eating is too easy as an unemployed slob
I grew out all my hair and I grew into a blob
My apartment grew a stinky atmosphere
I feel like nothing from doing nothing
Today I'm hitting the track and then I'm trimming my hair and beard 'cause
I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I'll climb above the pain and the shame and the fear
'Cause I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I started doing anything to numb the pain
Booze and weed and video games became my bane
I'm stupid and forgetful and I'm verging on insane
In a cloud of fantasy and dope and beer
I feel like nothing from doing nothing
I'm pouring out all the alcohol to get my spirit clear 'cause
I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I'll climb above the pain and the shame and the fear
'Cause I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
In the midst of the pain I lost my date
She packed it up and left me to my blame and hate
No-one wants a parasite that's drunk and overweight
It was one last kicker to my beat-up rear
I feel like nothing from doing nothing
But no-one's coming to save me so I'm clearing my head and shedding the pounds
And getting a job and winning a girl and finding my new frontier! 'Cause
I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
I'll climb above the pain and the shame and the fear
'Cause I can't do nothing while I'm way down here
