Lowlife (Live From Marigny)

One, two, three

I don't wanna go out today
I wanna sit right here and wish the world away
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
I don't care if the people stare
I'm gonna stay right here in my underwear
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife

You know I get embarrassed most of the days
When I'm walkin' 'round Camden with a smirk on my face
Put my hand in my pocket to find some change
Buy a bottle of gin to get the memories erased
'Cause you know what life is? It's extremely divisive
It's a fraudulent razor for you to trim your sides with

Young, dumb, livin' off mum
That's a line from my friend that I thought I should bum
Not all the words are my own, but I don't want you to judge
I thought inspiration was all about fun
Life's been eating me up, it's poisoned my cup
And if I leave the house, I'll get hit by a truck

I don't wanna go out today
I wanna sit right here and wish the world away
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
I don't care if the people stare
I'm gonna stay right here in my underwear
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife

In the world of normal people, I'm a monkey
It's painted on their faces that they think that I'm a junkie
In the way that I dress, the people I bed
The way I express, the things in my head

I don't go to the bar, I sit in the dark
I smoke a cigar, I play the guitar
I stay in my house, I put on my sounds
The neighbours tell me to turn it down so (whoo!)

So, I don't wanna go out today
I wanna sit right here and wish the world away
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
I don't care if the people stare
I'm gonna stay right here in my underwear
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife

La-la-la (la-la-la)
La-la-la-la (la-la-la-la, la-la-la)
Lowlife
La-la-la (la-la-la)
La-la-la-la (la-la-la-la, la-la-la)
Lowlife (alright)

People come, people go, people high, people low
People stay, people change, people lie, people don't
I don't fulfill my potential
'Cause everyone around me's so self-referential
Hypocritical, maybe, a petulant baby
Shut up, you're driving me crazy (whoo!)
Call me a lowlife, that shit don't faze me
I'm alright on my own, I don't need you to save me

I don't wanna go out today
I'm gonna sit right here and wish the world away
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife
I don't care if the people stare
I'm gonna stay right here in my underwear
'Cause I'm a lowlife, lowlife

La-la-la (la-la-la)
La-la-la-la (la-la-la-la, la-la-la)
Lowlife
La-la-la (la-la-la)
La-la-la-la (la-la-la-la, la-la-la)
Lowlife

Hello, mum
Nah, I'm not comin' over for Sunday dinner
I think I've had too much to drink
I love you though
Lowlife

Whoo (yeah)
Let's go
Good job guys (whoo)
That was crazy
