Dead End

Oh what's wrong with me Said oh what's wrong with me I know what I don't want to be A dead end on the family tree And I just lost my virginity To a girl who won't remember me at all Took her out on a shopping spree Happiness never happened for free Could it be that I imagined things I'm just sad instead of heartbroken She came home but she's leaving again She's coming back but she won't say when(chorus) And I don't sing songs anymore I don't feel young anymore And it's hard to conceal That these tears that I cry are for real Any more My pop said I should be like him My mom says I can live with them I had to ask my little brother to lend Me change for the bus ‘til I see him again I'm getting drunk every day of the week My ship sunk but it had no leak A fortune teller on Bishop street She read my hand and the future is bleak I'm tired of sitting upon the fence I've got no self confidence Why don't I have a circle of friends I'm so square they don't even pretend (chorus) Don't give in You can never let them win But I get cold I get cold Every night, night, night, Without a prayer in my heart, heart, heart Oh what's wrong with me Said oh Lord what's wrong with me I know what I don't want to be A dead end on the family tree And the train for my salvation Is departing from the station She don't feel like conversation So I'm talking to myself I got nobody else I got my bottle of booze and my stale cigarettes Down from the shelf (chorus)
