lyrics

call me a seamstress i've unravelled
i've tried diy but found that i can't
find me a waitress i've got a thirst
i'm dry as a dried up cactus plant
get me a masseuse i am aching
i have been running incredibly thin
when these things all add up back to back to
back it's a rhythm of shit that i'm in
...
i've tried alright and i've tried ok
but i'm getting tired of trying them over and over
and over again and again
and again
...
score me an asprin my head is pounding
i've been staying up late and feeling quite rough
fetch me a coffee black no sugar
for it is bad and i'm sweet enough
land me a critic i've been lazy
haphazardly writing seldomly
who am i asking to get me these things
i don't think anyones listening
