lyrics

I spent the time and did the things I had to do to get up off the floor
And I kept my concentration on the feeling of my walking out the door
And I played the broken record of a hypochondriac
And I won the war that started with a cheap shot sneak attack
And I lived to tell the story Jack
Now I’m leaving and I’m never coming back

Well I itched and scratched and bitched and moaned and punched a nice sized hole into a wall
And I held my shit together with the help of heavy pharmaceuticals
And I learned to say go fuck yourself a thousand different ways
To a thousand different people on a thousand different days
And I lived to tell the story Jack
And I’m leaving and I’m never going back





And now I am the owner of the story that nobody wants to hear
Yeah but now that I can do it let me take the time to set the record clear
Don’t you come and ask me unless you want an answer back
And if you’re wearing armor then I’m looking for the crack
Cuz I lived to tell the story Jack
And I’m leaving Lord and never going back
