[00:00.000]Pertrified Life And The Twice Told Joke (Decrepit Bricks) - Gym Class Heroes
[00:37.471]I walk on decrepit bricks
[00:39.001]And kick sticks and rusty soda cans
[00:41.021]Simply for lack of better stimulation
[00:43.151]Motivation comes and goes like gas station patrons
[00:47.091]So sedation compensates for unexpected vacations
[00:49.271]Thank you
[00:50.671]That's my pre-gratitude
[00:52.311]Post-please leave me alone that's just my rude attitude
[00:55.191]No dysfunction flipside I'm just your ordinary citizen
[00:57.711]They're waiting patiently for me to sin again
[00:59.741]But then again s**t
[01:00.591]I'm really mommy's little angel
[01:01.741]But that angel on my shoulder got strangled
[01:07.771]For trying to tangle with his nemesis he caught
[01:10.201]Him on the wrong day
[01:11.361]And got cut like DJs spinning doubles
[01:15.081]Let the f**king song play
[01:16.151]I'm on my way to the store
[01:17.691]Ignoring the city to purchase a pack of marb reds
[01:19.611]With a stack of rolled pennies
[01:20.761]I could go for Denny's and my stomach holds plenty
[01:23.531]But my pockets got holes
[01:24.781]I guess the goal is to stay empty
[01:26.501]Quite simply put me and my pockets share interest
[01:29.301]I never fall in love with that
[01:31.081]Pretty green-eyed temptress
[01:31.711]Twice yeah right
[01:33.201]I learned my lesson the first time
[01:35.421]I just couldn't keep up with that
[01:37.061]Ever-changing Jordan line of foot apparel
[01:39.001]Parallel to many clones my eye's vision monochromes
[01:42.501]With seven shades and twenty tones
[01:45.181]Plus I breath artistic they eating everything
[01:47.441]I'm feeding them
[01:48.251]Put myself in every painting and use my spit
[01:50.101]As mat medium
[01:50.731]And results of my children
[01:52.631]We share the same genes
[01:54.211]Cast the same reflection and interpret the same dreams
[01:56.771]Like whoa Like whoa Like whoa Like whoa
[02:00.051]Whoa Whoa
[02:02.741]And at night I roam these streets with
[02:04.531]Absolutely no purpose
[02:05.561]Feeling like I'm worthless
[02:09.091]But contrary to my last statement I feel fine
[02:12.431]Content with the fact that I know this city's mine
[02:15.221]And at night I roam these streets with
[02:17.481]Absolutely no purpose
[02:18.231]Feeling like I'm worthless
[02:21.471]But contrary to my last statement I feel fine
[02:24.661]Content with the fact that I know this city's mine
[02:27.571]I walk down dead end streets like I
[02:29.621]Didn't see the sign
[02:30.641]Just to turn around and walk back
[02:32.651]That's fine and dandy
[02:33.701]But what's whack is the fact I'm still walking
[02:36.111]Likethank god for walkmans
[02:37.901]I'm only yawning cause these simply minded
[02:41.341]Mortals make me sleepy
[02:43.031]So what do I do I resort to TV
[02:45.151]In the seemingly lousy attempt to numb myself
[02:47.851]With lackluster images
[02:48.951]And insignificant information like Willis
[02:50.311]Was really Ty Bridges
[02:51.901]Just to have the upper hand in monotonous conversation
[02:55.071]And for lack of better stimulation
[02:58.001]I'm painting portraits of dysfunctional families
[02:59.501]With gloomy faces rockin
[03:01.131]Don't Worry Be Happy t-shirts and
[03:02.661]You're assuming I'm tasteless
[03:03.811]You misconstrue it but your babies will embrace it
[03:06.871]The basic essentials of a very bitter young man
[03:09.901]That kicks rusty soda cans
[03:11.271]And walks on decrepit bricks
[03:12.781]With a permanent pair of headphones
[03:14.261]Trying to make these lectures stick
[03:15.931]I'll let the protestors picket
[03:16.981]Like they are going to make a difference
[03:19.051]And watch them die before they realize
[03:20.770]That their cause was nonexistent
[03:27.839]And at night I roam these streets with
[03:29.579]Absolutely no purpose absolutely no purpose
[03:32.359]Feeling like I'm worthless feeling like I'm worthless
[03:34.209]But contrary to my last statement I feel fine
[03:37.399]Content with the fact that I know this city's mine
[03:40.179]And at night I roam these streets with
[03:42.139]Absolutely no purpose absolutely no purpose
[03:43.499]Feeling like I'm worthless feeling like I'm worthless
[03:46.479]But contrary to my last statement I feel fine
[03:49.679]Content with the fact that I know this city's mine
[03:52.769]I walk on shitty city sidewalks
[03:53.999]Stepping on every single crack
[03:55.689]Reminiscent of that joke we used to say
[03:57.679]When we were snotty nose
[03:58.819]My purpose got defeated when
[04:00.239]My mom turned paraplegic
[04:01.139]Plus I failed my civil service exam
[04:03.389]They said I cheated
[04:05.099]Not to mention tainted urine samples
[04:06.689]And the attention span of a second-grader
[04:08.139]More fascinated with building blocks
[04:10.149]Than wasting time stressing his daily lesson
[04:12.269]Hence the ridilin I've been gone with the
[04:14.479]Wind like lucky lottery tickets since day one one
[04:17.959]I stepped on the left cause rights wrong wrong
[04:19.839]So what do I doI resort to friendly
[04:21.549]Games of ping pong and sing a song of sixpence
[04:24.139]I'm none the richer
[04:25.469]I just kiss her on the lips and keep trucking
[04:27.809]And at night I roam these streets
[04:29.839]With absolutely no purpose absolutely no purpose
[04:31.789]Feeling like I'm worthless feeling like I'm worthless
[04:34.719]But contrary to my last statement I feel fine
[04:36.769]Content with the fact that I know this city's mine
[04:40.759]And at night I roam these streets
[04:42.549]With absolutely no purpose absolutely no purpose
