It's been ten long years since I've been home
  I've been waiting here with nowhere to go
  It's an occupation I don't like
  But it pays the rent and turns on the light
  
  I told you so
  It has to be
  Cut loose news and runaway with me
  We'll go out every night
  I'll be there by your side
  And we'll all get high down the ...' side
  
  If i hate the job and I hate the place
  But I must stay for your pretty face
  It's a fucking reaction I can fix
  Cut me with those free ___ tricks(?)
  
  I told you so
  It's a crazy world
  For a mixed up guy
  And a no good girl
