Grifted Kid Blues (Live From The Kramer)
They said I was bright
They said I was smart
They said I was better off being set apart
They gave me more work
I barely would try
And now I am stuck inside this rut for my whole life
'Cause everyone knew that I would make them proud
And I don't want to let them down, oh no
So now I get drunk
So now I get high
Between an exam and a piece of peanut butter pie
Don't ask me my plans
I don't even know
Just how I expect to get a job or find a home
Because of a litmus test of cunning wit
And a ticket to a life of bullshit
They said I was smart
They said I was better off being set apart
They gave me more work
I barely would try
And now I am stuck inside this rut for my whole life
'Cause everyone knew that I would make them proud
And I don't want to let them down, oh no
So now I get drunk
So now I get high
Between an exam and a piece of peanut butter pie
Don't ask me my plans
I don't even know
Just how I expect to get a job or find a home
Because of a litmus test of cunning wit
And a ticket to a life of bullshit
