Don’t start a band, unless you like spending time in a hot van
(7 hours to get there, 14 dollars at door)
Don’t start a band, you oughta invest in your future
(Your student loans won’t pay themselves; you should pick up more hours)
And every day I feel like a failure, sit alone at home watching Sailor Moon DVD sets
And everything just fills me with envy
Always feel like my world is ending, every moment of every day
Don’t start a band, unless you like picking fights with your best friends
(“I wish you’d start playing sober,” “why don’t you ever shut up?”)
Don’t start a band, you didn’t go to college for nothing
(This run of records costs more than my car, these kids aren’t buying our t-shirts)
And every night I feel like a failure
Drink alone and curse like a sailor, I shouldn’t drink so much
And I think that this tour just might kill
Drinking every night doesn’t thrill me
Like it did in college
