Recorded at the Penthouse in Key West, Fl in December of 2006...originally recorded at The Mung Manor in Arnold, Maryland in December of 1999, this is a very different version than the original version
lyrics
Well I'm homeless, but I own this
I feel comfortable on other people's couches
I keep driftin', I keep movin',
ain't no tellin' where i'm goin'
I stay busy, I stay hungry, I stay lonely with my friends
I stay lonely with my friends
I got no bills, but I got debts
I haven't bothered to pay them yet
I don't feel guilty, not one bit, I will give when I get
I will give when I get
I got no stress, of what's to come
can I have your worries 'cause I got none
I smoke reefer, defy the teacher, I'm a late sleeper i'm a law breaker
I'm a late sleeper i'm a law breaker
I groove when I'm happy, I write when I'm feelin' sick
The closer you get to the ground the higher you'll get
I said I groove when i'm happy, write when I'm feelin' sick
The closer you get to the ground the higher you'll get
I got a Volkswagen van, but it don't run
My alarm clock is the morning sun
I got no job, I'm unemployed
But every day I don't slave I jump for joy
Every day I don't slave I jump for joy!
DWI, so I don't drive
With the help of my friends man I'll get by
The MVA, took my license away,
They made me a slave I'll kill 'em all someday
Made me a slave I'll kill 'em all someday
Whatever money I have, I spend it all in a day
Gonna buy me some beer and cigarettes
Well I'm up all night, sleep all day
I love my crazy life with no regrets
Love my crazy life with no regrets
I write all night, by the candlelight
The words are so bright from the dark they spite
I love these stories, 'cause their all true
This is how I live this is what I do
This is how I live this is what I do
