On the Fritz

I have a paper due tomorrow
and I haven't done the reading.
I haven't read the topics but it's time to change my pants
'cuase there's a party outside and it's time to dance.

I really liked the boy
we had fun together.
I thought he was interested; I was wrong.
Now my heart is broken; please pass the bong.

Chorus:

Eat more!
Drink more!
Swallow what you feel!
Smoke it, toke it, tie it in a rope and pretend its not real!
Take me to the head shop!
Take me to the liquor store!
I can't deal with this Earthly existance anymore!

My Dad knows his concubine
more than he knows me.
I have a brother that I barely ever see.
Bring that bottle over here - I need more of that whisky!

Chorus

I want to be an alien
zooming around, visiting other planets.
Rocket here and rocket there
'cause Earth is the pits and I'm on the fritz!

Take me to a black hole somewhere
Doesn't really matter where; I don't really care.
Just lift me up and take me out of here!

Chorus

I want to buy that outfit
but my board bill is due.

I want to go out, take a trip but I don't have the money.
Bills are on my desk unopened - buy me another beer, honey!

Chorus

I want to be an alien
zooming around, visiting other planets.
Rocket here and rocket there
'cause Earth is the pits and I'm on the fritz!
