Lyrics
IF I HAD A LIFE
If I had a life this is what I'd do
I'd buy a box of toothpicks
And stick 'em in the eyelids
Of every sedentary bastard
And you know who you are
All you big fake's
Who get your self worth needs met
Through pointing your fingers
At all my mistakes
I know where you live and who your heroes are
Don't you know they built your house on sand
And in that moment when you know it all
Like that fat fuck Humpty you begin your fall
And how come no one's lining up to put you back together again
If I had a girl
In fact I think that I do
I could build her a cage
With emotional bars
Kind of like my own petting zoo
Wouldn't that be cruel
No I don't have a hammer
But I once had a clue
Two chimps in the bush
Is a much safer bet
Than a porno revue
By a gentile and Jew Cool
I know where you live and who your parent's are
Is that your dad who drives that GTO
Cause in that moment when you knew it all
Like Mr. Dumpty you begin your fall
And there won't be no one coming round to put you back together again
No there wont be no one coming round to put you back together again
No you're the only hope in hell of ever putting you together again, again, again
If I had a life here's what I'd do
