I'm laughing at stupid jokes I'm listening to this radio station I'm coughing up blood every night I hope I don't make it out alive If I had any money, I'd give it away Put myself right back in the same place Ordinary living just don't feel right I need the ache in my back and the sleepless nights I'm laughing at stupid jokes I'm listening to this radio station I'm coughing up blood every night I hope I don't make it out alive If I'm not cute then kill me now I can't spend another day in this town You father told you to shape up or ship out You quickly cut your hair and washed out your mouth What's the point? Oh what's the use? Don't you see what everybody else sees in you You've given up before your feet hit the ground You shut your mouth before you even made a sound I'm laughing at stupid jokes I'm listening to this radio station I'm coughing up blood every night I hope I don't make it out alive If you want your life to be easy Then take that path That's been traveled so many times before Walk the simple, straight-forward route Live a pointless, flat, boring life And let go of it all Yeah, just let the credits roll
