Trevor calls in sick
Cause he's had enough of this
Always the same old shit
He's goin' hunting instead
To the bush right up the bend
He don't care none
(And he's) stuck at a light and running low
Living on an empty idle
Ain't that the way it goes
Laura's leaving early
But she tells me not to worry
Things aren't that dirty
She lives out in the west end
Down-wind from the River Rouge plant
But she don't care none
(And she's) stuck at a light and running low
Living on an empty idle
Ain't that the way it goes
And I'm still here
Alone again
Working that double shift 'til the end
This has been the worst summer yet
Then it's closing time
So I close up
And I drive home
Dreaming 'bout your eyes
Oh how could I forget
And this is the only life I know
Living on an empty idle
Ain't that the way it goes
And f*ck this job
F*ck this town
Hope my car crashes if I'm still around here
When I get old
I do it all for you
I do it all for you
I do it all for you
Trevor calls in sick
Cause he's had enough of this
Me I got nothing better to do
