lyrics

I don't make much money,
That's okay I don't work too hard.
A better man might better himself.
I bet I don't amount to much.

The only time I read a book, is on the train on my way to class.
Resting against the safety glass.
I forget where I left off.

Wires knit the city to stitches
Wires knit the city to stitches.

Ha haha hahahaha.

Me and Drew, we make up words
We talk backwards, throw wine coolers

I know it sounds absurd
Like hahaha

Every time I read a book, I misinterpret what it means,
I think it applies to only me.

Wires knit the city to stitches
Wires knit the city to stitches.

Ha haha haha ha ha.

I make a better liar than a witness,
whatever happened to American Princes?
