Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Back is achin' but I cannot sleep 'Cause I want to be like I am the mayor of some godforsaken town Sure, they knighted me yesterday But who needs armor when I have an exoskeleton? I slip and squirm through the cracks Creep around by the- all the loading zones in my dirty little town Get my shoppin' done, laundry too Drop some dead weight, clean my hands of what I need to clean my hands of And all for free by mayoral decree All from zone to loading zone of my town, yeah Three grumpy girls and a dyin' daddy But oh-so gorgeous the way they crave How beautiful to take a bite out of the world I want to rip the world a new one It just crawls out of my mouth anymore You can hate on it or you can hug it You can get all mushy and lovey-dovey It's all the same when I'm out there drivin' around All from zone to loading zone of my beautiful town I park for free One stop shop life for the quick fix Before you get a ticket That's the way I live my life I park for free I park for free I park for free I park for free I park for free I park for free I park for free
