verse 1: Munching on a ham and cheese sando in the morning on Friday Cruising down the Pacific Highway Thinking 'bout the day ahead I paid the rent cheque, got my registration and phone bill If those two don't overthrow me the dogs will But heck at least I know the taste of bread Why do I seem to spend my whole damn life chasing paper? I'm like an actor turned singer turned waiter I'll wait around until I meet with my maker Then I'll sign up for AA or something I just wish there was some other way to get myself somewhere This little strip of earth and all that I've done there I'm like a bull-ant on the leg of a sunchair Under a magnifying glass I wish somebody would build a bridge So I can get over myself On my own I'm wasting my time verse 2: I take a phonecall on the mobile while I'm checking the meter One sec I need to turn up that little speaker It's getting noisy in this little town We're like America we love to make a ho-har out of jack shit I never ever really seemed to fit But now I'm stuck so deep in all of this Come to think of it I might as well be travelling backwards It's been an hour and I'm only in Chatswood I hate the way that I'm becoming a product Go pick me up for $24.95 I'm on sale and it's retail in the world of deception You can treat a man if he can't get erections Is there a pill for my lack of direction? Thanks mate, I'll have a pack of those I wish somebody would build a bridge So I can get over myself On my own I'm wasting my time I wish somebody would build a bridge So I can get over myself On my own I'm losing my mind verse 3: It's all good I got a broom and a cheap persian rug now I can sweep the whole thing outta my sight now Outta sight, outta mind I'll keep on going until I'm pushing 30 or 40 And as long as I don't do something naughty I love my wife, what a life She comes home to find me spread on the floor from blood poisoning I popped a whole lot of pills and I'm shaking And there's a needle sticking out of my arm, I ain't faking I'm zoning in I'm zoning out You wanna help me, don't call me an ambulance honey Just get a silver service cab this is funny Just one passenger please, going up my own ass You take credit card? Fuck this! I wish somebody would build a bridge So I can get over myself On my own I'm wasting my time I wish somebody would build a bridge So I can get over myself On my own I'm losing my mind I wish somebody would build a bridge So I can get over myself On my own I'm wasting my time... I'm wasting my life I wish somebody would build a bridge So I can get over myself On my own I'm losing my mind
