Speechwriters Llc - dear liz lyrics

rate me

Same ten songs on the radio and I still don't have a job

They call this summer vacation, I'm numb with frustration

I've turned myself around so many times I don't know where I'm going

If you can see me try not to scream because

There's nothing that's wrong with me that's not wrong with everyone

It's just that I'm aware of what gets me down and what takes me there

And what makes me hang around with surrogate family and friends who can't stand me

And part of me's thinking I'll just throw in the towel

But I need to start making money so I can have money

So I can spend money on things like girls and music and hash and bread

So I can eat daily and not drop dead

But the letters of rejection, they keep piling up

The position's all filled and I'm shit out of luck

I really need to get some resolution here fast

'Cause tomorrow afternoon they're gonna shut off my gas

Dear Liz, come back to California and save me

The summertime's driving me crazy

It isn't even fourth of July

Thing is, you probably think that I'm lazy

Jobless and taking it easy

When I'm about ready to die

The night's too young and I feel too old

To be home alone watching a cigarette smolder

Down to the lips that shouldn't be there

But I'm too drunk to notice, too tired to care

That I'm killing time like it's a friend of mine

And it doesn't even matter that the sun still shines

'Cause I'm here and it sucks and I'm broke, my life's a fucking joke

I see another couple holding hands, I'm gonna choke to death

And with my last breath I can holler out your name because it's all I got left

I'm wishing I'd thrown that towel back when I could have, should have

Dear Liz, come back to California and save me

The summertime's driving me crazy

It isn't even fourth of July

Thing is, you probably think that I'm lazy

Jobless and taking it easy

When I'm about ready to die
