lyrics

Idiot’s Lament
By Little Erin

Verse 1
I’ve been kicked around this block before
And I don't wanna get kicked around no more
You talk about things that you wanna change,
But you won’t
The only finger you ever lift for change
Is the channel on your remote

Chorus

Turn your head and look away
Things are easier that way
Just disengage, and everything’s great
Meanwhile, here on planet earth
Things are only getting worse
And all you can say is
“Oh well, we’re never getting outta here alive”

Verse 2
Someone lift me up
I can’t “get a grip”
How much longer do you expect me to hang on for you?
The bottom is pretty rough,
I know you’ve never been there, but,
Take it from me, it’s not that far down

Bridge 1
Oh but life, what a strange and twisted thing
A dying embers gleam
Floating on a breeze
Along the stupid drunken leaves on life
Stumbling by
Just trying to survive

Verse 3
Well, I’m not being a bitch I’m just being real,
This is exactly how I feel
And what I see, disgusts me
A world so vast,
We could live free
Instead you choose to lazily through your chance away
To help make better days

Bridge 2
Oh no, here we go again
Excuse after excuse, man
When will it ever end?
“Why try” - the idiot’s lament
So sorry to bother you, Mr.
I know you’re show’s about to begin

Outro
But we’ve been kicked around this block before
And we’re not gonna get kicked around no more.
