Lyrics
Some people promise me I can make it
Some say that I’ll make it out alive
All comedy aside, I’ve tried and I can say
I’m gonna fake it
Everything I’ve done is for myself
Really I’m not selfish, I’m quite selfless
My wife, my kids and mom
My friends can all confirm
I have a weakness
Sheila, she lives at home alone
She works a nine to five
Her life’s a bore she knows
She keeps herself alive with fast food
and a microwave full of burritos
Seth can barely get out of his bed
He’s scared of his own shadow
He’ll always be in debt
He’s got so much regret
But he’s living on one cigarette
One last cigarette
I’m bored to death
One last cigarette
I’m bored to death
Michael, he lives at home alone
He works a nine to five
He watches TV shows
That make him laugh his ass off
Keeps a secret no one knows
He’s a superhero
Jenna, she keeps her kids well fed
She’s barely ever home
They stay with their stepdad
To her that’s life and a regret
She’s living on one cigarette
One last cigarette
I’m bored to death
One last cigarette
I’m bored to death
