lyrics

(Jeglic)

I’m told that I’m bad with my money / so I’m watching on how much I spend
I’m only buying whats needed / and figured I’d save in the end
But now I’m finding it funny / as I live off the kindness of friends
I haven’t really conceded / just shrug off the bills that they send
As long as there’s still more money they’ll lend

Spent ’bout the last year just drinking / but that tapered off as of late
I gave into others’ persuasion / Decided to buy a clean slate
But then I started to thinking / with all that I have on my plate
I’d save it for special occasions / and found out its well worth the wait
I’ve never found so much to celebrate

They say I’m not really trying / I’m finding the easy way out
I’m sure I’ll find a good reason / a scapegoat to end all their doubt
And they won’t continue denying / when I find a way out of this drought
But it seems to be the dry season / and nothing I plant wants to sprout
If my seeds never grow I guess I’ll just have to go without
