lyrics

i got friends by the dumpster and they’re much cooler than yours they don’t worry about much save what to eat for dinner they still smoke in the bathroom they still steal from the store and i'm happy to have found them they make life simpler i got friends on my phone now sometimes i wish they werent i wish they were close but they're still cooler than yours i'm doing alright but sometimes when i'm not they’re just one phone call away remind me i'm not all i got now i'm finding support in the strangest of places it’ll be nice having a job where i'm not alone i’m finding support that doesn’t feel abusive that actually cares and picks up their phone its just a shit day not a shit life maybe a shit month but we’ll be all right just a shit year but if we hang tight i’ll see everyone again but this time this time i’ll be better i got friends by the dumpster and they never leave they don’t take jobs in cities where they won’t see me they still drive way too fast and they still run from the cops we all find solace in each other while working the shittiest jobs now i'm finding support in the strangest of places it’ll be nice having a job where i'm not alone i’m finding support that doesn’t feel abusive that actually cares and picks up their phone its just a shit day not a shit life maybe a shit month but we’ll be all right just a shit year but if we hang tight i’ll see everyone again but this time this time its just a shit day not a shit life maybe a shit month but we’ll be all right just a shit year but if we hang tight i’ll see everyone again but this time this time its just a shit day not a shit life maybe a shit month but we’ll be all right just a shit year but if we hang tight i’ll see everyone again but this time this time i'll be better.
