Give up your day job

Written by FrancisDunnery
From The Album
Lets go do what happens




When I came out of my mother’s womb
They put a sticker on my head that said
Roman-catholic-white-trash-piece-of-garbage isn’t going anywhere
I believed them for a while
But then I started getting all these anti-messages from my psyche

This is a message to all the youth of 1998
Give up your day job
and follow the grief trail home
Follow the grief trail home

If you’re sixteen years old with final exams
Society’s got you by the balls
You can learn that grown up stuff in your 40’s if you want to
Take no heed what teacher says
They’re teaching you the garbage that I learned some years ago

Children has society got you by the scruff of the neck
Have they got you all pumped up on prozac
Has the government got you thinking that they really care about you
Have you stopped listening to your own inner voice
by watching all that disaster TV
Well I have a message for you, well I have a message for you amen
Tune in, turn on and smash it all up, because nothing really matters
Like you think it does anyway
