Just Like Me

I heard your ma cried louder than a church bell when all the new flames got
doused by stormy seas
I spent my time pining for a love song
Well I’ll be home in time tonight
I think it’s funny that you’ll leave without a fanfare
You’ll hit the road pal, leave your footprints in the dust
You’re a mental gymnast, hittin' flips right over your nightmares
I won’t be home in time tonight
I’ve had my highs and lows
I’ve been pretentious and I’ve been a selfish fool, I know
I hope you reap all the seeds you’ve sown
Cause your so fuckin' friendly, it’s so fuckin easy to feel at home
You think you’re clever and classless and free, you’re just a fuckin scumbag
just like me
And if you’re building your house on the shore, don’t be surprised when the
waves at your door
I’ve a pain in me hoop with you round these days
I’m so sick and tired of playing these games
We’re all just dead, we’re all just fucked, go back to sleep
I think it’s funny when a dream knocks on your window
And although it’s not yours, you’re obliged to hold its seams
And all you want is to be singing the songs of your hometown. That dream can
fuck off home in time tonight
I’ve had my highs and lows
I’ve been pretentious and I’ve been a selfish fool, I know
I hope you reap all the seeds you’ve sown
Cause your so fuckin' friendly, it’s so fuckin easy to feel at home
You think you’re clever and classless and free, you’re just a fuckin scumbag
just like me
And if you’re building your house on the shore, don’t be surprised when the
waves at your door
I’ve a pain in me hoop with you round these days
I’m so sick and tired of playing these games
We’re all just dead, we’re all just fucked, go back to sleep
