lyrics

Verse 1:
I'm doing what I can with the cards I been dealt
You know it didn't turn out quite like they said
Get well educated, get a good job
From what I can see I'm much worse off

Chorus:
I heard it all again to day
How I just pissed my life away
Yes I know exactly what you're trying to say
Listen up it doesn't work that way

Verse 2:
Don't talk to me as if I'm doing it wrong
The only thing wrong is time and money that's gone
I could have had a holiday or got a new car
This shitty bit of paper's not getting me to far

Middle 8:
It's not all lies
Same happened to a friend of mine
Happens all the time
But that's just modern life

Verse 3:
I'm doing what I can with the cards I've been dealt
Just trying to pay my bills and my rent
Get well educated, get a good job
The hole in my shoe says I'm much worse off
My empty stomach says I'm much worse off
My empty wallet says I'm much worse off.
