lyrics

i've got nothing to say.
i've got building blocks for teeth and a tube sock for a tongue.
i can't do anything.
i can't do my hair right, or have a good time, or fall asleep with my girl.
if you don't want to see the worst in me then you've got two choices--
cover your eyes, both hands tight, or just leave.
i don't know what i think.
i'm unsure that i could or couldn't care less or more about everyone i do or don't know.
if you don't want to be with a deadbeat like me,
well, i won't blame you.
