Killing Time

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Well I'm just sat here killing time
The sun is shining and the Black Rat's tasting mighty fine
No other place I need to be
It's days like this that keep you going through the drudgery
And if I had the luck to win that lottery
I'd be here every day just killing time and feeling like I'm free

[Bridge]

[Verse 2]
Don't need a medical degree
To understand that this is very slowly killing me
But that's alright cause we're all heading the same way
I'll get there first and get the shots in at the bar if that's okay?

[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
Well I don't really understand
The point of living if you do it without beer in hand
Our basic instinct says survive
But living long is not the only point of being alive
And you could say that this philosophy is flawed
That's fine unless you think old age and boredom isn't a reward

[Bridge]

[Verse 4]
So if you're heading to the bar
I'll have another pint of gutrot cider from the jar
That's right - the lumpy stuff that tastes like creosote
I drink it cause it's cheap like me and just because it floats my boat

[Bridge]

[Verse 5]
The sun is setting finally
I sometimes wonder if I'd never drunk how rich I'd be
I could have paid the house off, bought a nice new car
I could have put the kids through college, bought a new guitar
I could enjoy a swanky holiday each year
But I'd be bored as fuck and that is why you'll always find me here

[Outro]
