D-DU-UDU
I  was a young  boy that had  big plans.
Now  I'm just  another shitty  old  man.
I  don't have fun  and I hate  everything.
 The world  owes me,  so fuck you.
Glory days  don't mean  shit to me.
I  drank a six  pack of  apathy.
Life's  a bitch  and so  am I.
 The world  owes me,  so fuck you.
Wasted youth  and a fistful  of ideals.
I  had a young  and optimisitic  point of  view.
Wasted youth  and a fistful  of ideals.
I  had a young  and optimisitic  point of  view.
I've  decomposed,  yet my gut's  getting fat.
Oh  my god  I'm turning out  like my dad.
I'm  always rude  i've got a bad  attitude.
 The world  owes me,  so fuck you.
The  wife's a nag  and the kid's  fucking up.
I  don't have sex  `cause i can't  get it up.
I'm  just a grouch  sitting on  the couch.
 The world  owes me,  so fuck you.
Wasted youth  and a fistful  of ideals.
I  had a young  and optimisitic  point of  view.
Wasted youth  and a fistful  of ideals.
I  had a young  and optimisitic  point of  view.
