lyrics

Oh I hustle and I bustle and I shuffle my way cross town
Going meet a woman trying to keep all my lunch meat down
And anyone who's anywhere is wanting a piece of me now
Cause I'm living on the surface while I'm working for the underground
Oh they're yammering and clamboring demanding I tell them how
Oh a freak like me
Could ever hope to be
Something more
Than just a bore
Well what for

Oh I spill out my guts and I hop on an eastbound train
Just keep thinking about the record while I'm choking on my higher brain
And anyone who's anywhere are all gonna feel the same
As we all get together and talk about our imminant fame
I mean I know it sounds crazy but it really isn't all that insane
Cause I'm right here and I don't fear
Cheapo knock offs or taunts and jeers
And I know
Yeah I know
Guess I should go

And I guess we'll all find out
Eventually they'll have to show us how
But I'd rather know right now
They're stalling us, they're trying to sell us out
And nobody is anywhere in any position now
To lecture me or set me free without
A million pounds in broken mouths to tout
And can't you see you might as well be
Just another asshole just like me
A quiet doubt
A face in the crowd
Let's make it loud.
