Descendents - I Quit lyrics

rate me

Music was my hobby, something that I did for fun

Now that it's become a job, the damage has been done

No amount of money can repair my broken lungs

And who cares what yer makin' if yer makin' it alone

Sick all the time, I miss my wife - I quit

Got better things to do with my life - I quit

I quit - I quit

Go ahead and say it, tell me I'm getting old

Tell me I'm a sellout, but it's you that's being sold

See, I refuse to think of rock and roll as my career

Tell me all my opportunities, ask me if I care

The rock star lifestyle ain't for me - I quit

Got somewhere else I'd rather be, so I quit

I quit - I quit

Go ahead and say it, call me a fuckin' wimp

Just cuz I've got a different kind of life that I wanna live

You can criticize my ideals and my priorities

But ultimately I don't give a flying fuck what you think of me

I don't believe in that macho shit - I quit

I know there's no way you can understand it - I quit

Sick all the time, I miss my wife - I quit

Got better things to do with my life - I quit

I quit - I quit

What'd ya think, I wanted to be Mick Jagger or something,

Playing the pixie at 50 or 60?

Gimme a break!

I mean,I don't wanna grow up and all that, but

The time has come for me to say

I quit
