Yeah, ninth hundreth times a charm

I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more

I've been a waiter and a writer
Cleaning toilets in a diner
I've made boxes in a factory
Stacked shelves and wore designer
Been a lover and fighter
And a nuisance with a lighter
A degenerate, a barman
A producer and a liar
Been a thief I've been an addict
Acting crazy and dramatic
Been a loser and a frenemy
A confidant
I've lived a life man
One I don't wanna live no more

I'm at a standstill
I'm teetering on the edge of being landfill
And changing for the best
But it don't look like the weather for dying today
So I'm back up on my bullshit
Asking questions again
Like why I'm always fucking working
But I got no cash
And I live my whole life in my overdraft like
We can only laugh right?
I'm a take this for the last time
Like a bright light burning out
Don't know what I'm doing now
I thought I had I figured out
But karma came and knocked me down
I'm a bitch
I'm a clown
Writing lines on paper crowns
Feeling sick
Feeling down
You know what I'm thinking about

I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more

I've been a waiter and a writer
Cleaning toilets in a diner
I've made boxes in a factory
Stacked shelves and wore designer
Been a lover and fighter
And a nuisance with a lighter
A degenerate, a barman
A producer and a liar
Been a thief I've been an addict
Acting crazy and dramatic
Been a loser and a frenemy
A confidant
I've lived a life man
One I don't wanna live no more

I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more

I've been a waiter and a writer
Cleaning toilets in a diner
I've made boxes in a factory
Stacked shelves and wore designer
Been a lover and fighter
And a nuisance with a lighter
A degenerate, a barman
A producer and a liar
Been a thief I've been an addict
Acting crazy and dramatic
Been a loser and a frenemy
A confidant
I've lived a life man
One I don't wanna live no more
I don't wanna live no more
I don't wanna live no more

I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
I don't wanna be around no more
