Thumbs Off

This little boy's like all the rest
Cause he knows just what's inside him
He's never been put to the test
Cause he knows just where to find them

All his life he's had it easy
You know he's never had no problems
The house he lived in was so sleazy
But he still kept 'em coming

And who's gonna pay your bills today?
And who's gonna turn the girls away?
And who's gonna make you feel okay?
And who's gonna take your pills today?
And you know it can't be me
Yeah you know it can't be me

Sometimes I just feel too much
And I don't want to feel at all

He said to his mother one day you know
Mum I really think I'm different
She said son you'll have to go
You know it's costing too much to keep you

The day was wet as he walked down the road
You know his head was full of sorrow
Little did he know he'd never see
His own home again

And who's gonna pay your bills today?
And who's gonna turn the girls away?
And who's gonna make you feel okay?
And who's gonna take your pills today?
And you know it can't be me
Yeah you know it can't be me

Sometimes I just feel too much
And I don't want to feel at all

He said to his friends come on let's go
I'll take you to the show now
They said no no look here my friend
You make me feel much older

They left him alone sitting on the road
You know his head was full of bourbon
Little did he know they'd never see
The ones he knew so well

And who's gonna pay your bills today?
And who's gonna turn the girls away?
And who's gonna make you feel okay?
And who's gonna take your pills today?
And you know it can't be me
Yeah you know it can't be me

Sometimes I just feel too much
And I don't want to feel at all
