Give me something, give me some hope
Something to carry straight to hell
You get no points for style
You just gotta have time to kill
Grudges don't put liquor in the cabinet
My plans are somewhat less elaborate
Let the old wounds re-open
let it all come pouring out
I write myself a memo
A memo to keep away from you
Grudges don't put liquor in the cabinet
My plans are somewhat less elaborate
Sing your songs, Jesus Christ
What a year for bad advice
Grudges don't put liquor in the cabinet
My plans are somewhat less elaborate
Makes me wanna steal a car and punch somebody in the face
We all got our problems but this ain't the time and it ain't the place
I'm out of it as a proper response to confusing my needs and wants
I never meant for this to happen, baby, it ain't my fauly
We're selling ourselves short
We can all be so much more
We're dragging each other down
To Hell with good intentions
You're a cut price version of yourself, It's time to try something new
This square peg don't fit it's round hole so what do you want to do?
For all our education, our sophisticated airs
We just traded the coal mines for an office chair
We're selling ourselves short
We can all be so much more
We're dragging each other down
To Hell with good intentions
