Tim Barry - Idle Idylist lyrics



Everytime I stop and think
Well I'm hit with everything
I always thought about right and wrong and what I get used to
The cheatin' in seats of SUVs
In the shade of the trees
Down my street behind the backs of husbands, wives and bosses
Now I'm sittin' here with my dog
Six beers and my guitar
On this porch of wood makin' em my business
They say the economy's in a slump
And folks like them been givin' up
They jump from planes in front of trains yeah some from bridges

Yeah that's all right
That ain't my life
I cough all morning and I smoke all night
That's all right
That ain't my life
I pay two hundred dollars rent and I work when I like
Woah, Woah
Where did we go wrong?
Woah, woah
Have I been sittin' down too long?
No cash in my hands means I'm nothin' to you
But I won't sell myself

Got this friend close to me
She called from NYC
Said she got stock options salary and full benefits
She works the 22nd floor
In a cubicle built for her
She answers the phones and talks a bunch about investments
Well she's finally in love
She met some guy from Texas
She says he's the one but she has yet to meet him
They talk now every day
A line they communicate
I said fuck that job, fuck that new boat, yeah fuck that pension

Cause that ain't right
That ain't no life
You work a 60 hour week and see one hour sunlight
That ain't right
No, that ain't no life
That guy will finally be in the end, you won't even like
Woah, Woah
Where did we go wrong?
Woah, woah
Have I been sittin' down too long?
No cash in my hands means I'm nothin' to you
But I don't sell myself

Everytime I stop and think
Well I'm hit with everything
That I was taught about right and wrong and what I get used to
I let the greedy deal with greed
Ain't got nothin' but myself
And I ain't selling that
For no one else
I won't surround my emptiness with greed
And shit don't even need
And don't ask don't tell relationships based on infidelity
I know it ain't right
I know it ain't much of a life
But I let tomorrow be tomorrow
And let tonight be tonight
