2001-07-29 - I was 30 years old.

I thought I was pretty clever for having the final word of a verse loop right into the next verse. It looks more obviouse when you read it.

Lyrics

Stand up straight don't be late ain't it great when everything goes your

Way to go Sunk down low don't you know that everything is bringing you

down to earth for what it's worth dig in the dirt but you're not sure that you know how to play

the game it's all the same forgot your name you don't care it doesn't matter now

Something is coming to get you It's coming down fast you better watch out You know it is going to kill you You're going too fast you better slow down

Drink too much smoke too much eat too much why can't you stop behaving this

weigh to much eat your lunch roll with the punch when you fall down why can't you get

up to par slide up to the bar drive in your car now it's bad you're falling

way behind lost your mind with your kind just give up you can't make it work

Something is coming to get you It's coming down fast you better watch out You know it is going to kill you You're going too fast you better slow down

Get it straight Don't be late It's not that great Nothing ever seems to go your way

To go You're down too low Why don't you know That everything has beaten you down

To earth What are you worth Stuck in the dirt Now you'll never know how you should play

The game It's not the same You know your name But it's too late you don't matter now
