Don't Make Art

You gotta find a nice girl and settle down
Participate within your town
you gotta find a good job and never leave
work until your fingers bleed
and manage that cash, plan ahead
make sure you have the most shit before you're dead
don't ever make art or write any books
and never write songs with catchy hooks
don't stare at the stars, or spill your heart
son, you can't make a life if you're gonna make art
well, look at this house
isn't it nice? It's got five bedrooms and real bright lights
Look at that car
hot damn does it pur
55 on the interstate, get me to work
golf on the weekends, hundred thousands in debt
can't default if you're already dead
don't ever make art or write any books
and never write songs with catchy hooks
don't stare at the stars, or spill your heart
son, you can't make a life if you're gonna make art
I'll be down at the bar if your mother asks
tell her I went out to fill the gas
A man needs a minute to be alone with his thoughts
really helps to appreciate the life that he's got
don't ever make art or write any books
and never write songs with catchy hooks
don't stare at the stars, or spill your heart
son, you can't make a life if you're gonna make art
don't make any art or write any books
and never write songs with catchy hooks
don't stare at the stars, or spill your heart
son, you can't make a life if you're gonna make art

I've No Room for You

so this is one of the first songs
I've written without you
it's not one of my better songs
but at the moment it will do
I want you to know I didn't need you
turns out I can stand on my own
man, I used to just drink, sleep, breathe, and live you
man, you used to be my home
but goodbye, it's my life
(yeah)
and I've no room for you
goodbye, it's my life
and I've no room for you
I've no room for you
