I'm your sideman in overwork clothes, damp smelling T-shirt, stale taste in my mouth. The commitment I give you onstage is absurd, there's no way in hell I could polish your song. You pay for my patience, hard work and time, you check out at ten when it should've been nine. The money is poor but the living is rich, but dying onstage, thats not how I get my kicks. This morning's hangover and uncomfortable chair help me to hide from your maniacal stare. Hours of sitting and biting my tongue, this shit show of friendship is long since undone. CHORUS Ronald and Coco got nothing on you, even dressed up in red, yellow and blue. They just sell burgers and fall on their ass, they're not selling songs that are selfish and crass. CHORUS
