Famous For Nothing

Lyrics for Famous For Nothing

The barrel fire's fading My pals are disappearing Another night is passing but I won't go It's 2AM at townie And things are going my way Three buds, a glove and a foot of snow There's two little shits Selling joints on the hill And the kids down the lot Are burning cruisers for a thrill See, we had each other It was us against the world Famous for nothing Yeah, nothing was our world Well these lies won't save me Don't you know, don't you know From the time that made me Here we go, here we go The courts are filling up All the kids are coming down For a head start on the troubles Of a long night on the town Yeah, thank God it's Saturday And half my problems go away Sure the big ones on the way But I know how to handle them 9 to 3 on weekdays On the hour Sundays The good lord was calling me But I wasn't up From the convent to the rectory And over in the sacristy I'm a goddamn travesty And that's just my luck Well these lies won't save me Don't you know, don't you know From the time that made me Here we go, here we go Here we go! Yeah! Their gang went my way for basketball My gang went their way for alcohol When we met it wasn't pretty at all Still the bells of St. Mary's kept ringing 9 to 3 on weekdays On the hour Sundays Jesus Christ was calling me Here we go! Yeah! Their gang went my way for basketball My gang went their way for alcohol When we met it wasn't pretty at all Still the bells of St. Mary's kept ringing Their gang went my way for basketball My gang went their way for alcohol When we met it wasn't pretty at all Still the bells of St. Mary's were ringing The bells of St. Mary's were ringing
