Song Lyrics

My car broke down in Arizona
Have to ride the bus again
At ten-o-clock on Tuesday night
With thirteen cents and a broken pen

I put my backpack on the bench
Tell two people I don't smoke
See the cop across the street
He thinks that I am selling dope

I could have walked another block
To get away from th-e scene
Why does it always come to this
Where the z-ero meets the fifteen

And so I gave my thirteen cents
To the man who peed his pants
He passes out and falls on me
I watch my change fall from his hand

I see the lady next to me
Holds her baby black and blue
The junkie gutter-punks keeps asking where I got my new tattoo

What does it matter anyway
Thirteen cents or all I own
How can I ever save the world
On cup-o-soup and student loans

And
~Chorus~
I, want to try and save, the world
But it never, goes that way
God I don't know, what to do
Down at Colfax and Broadway

Now the man with no shoes on
Says I don't know how to play
He says I fumble all the time
He thinks that I am John Elway

I put my face down in my hands
Water wells inside my eyes
What do I, have to give them
Does it matter if I try

I can't stand to see you suffer
I try to intellectualize
A formula to end your pain
It doesn't work
God knows I've tried

'Cause
~Chorus~

Sometimes my cup is, overfilled
Sometimes I'm too afraid that I, am going, to, spill

And
~Chorus~

(Speaking)
Ah, this is really surreal.
You know how in movies,
people fake their death then they
go to their own funeral

It's weird, it's, we're,

I'm looking out and I'm seeing
all these people, all the big
fans from everywhere.

I don't know that's it,
I quit, this is it, this is as
good as it gets.

how many of you guys have
seen us on this tour.

Allright, I'm sorry to announce
that we didn't change the set list
up at all, 'cause we're too lazy.

And uh...also we're like,
should we make the last show
should we change up, add some
more songs, do something crazy.

but Then we're like, no, no it's
for us so we're just gonna be lazy,
and then uh.

I know you guys live for it,
I hope you don't mind.
