(Goddamnit)

[Chris Orrick]
I take my coffee with three sugars and some cream
Killing myself softly with a puff of nicotine, yeah
My heart's a motor and I'm clogging the machine
Getting up hung over, that's just part of the routine
Went to the doctor, said, "Your liver's full of fat
 You better quit the booze" I said, "Well Doc, how dull is that?"
My doctor does the Iron Man, I put the bacon in the frying pan
DM me recommended diet plans
Was gonna kill myself by using exhaust fumes
Turns out the regulations made that shit too clean
So thanks Obama for the disappointment, now I just avoid it
Only time I ever die is in my dreams

[Chorus]
Most days I can't get out of bed before it's noon
Don't wanna leave my room, looking at my phone
Knocking on the door, pretend nobody's home
Laying in my bed, wishing I was dead
("It's lonely inside now... and gone") Anywhere instead
("It's lonely inside now... and gone")
("It's lonely inside now... and gone") Anywhere instead
("It's lonely inside now... and gone")
So baby let's go sell my car and get away
Hop on the interstate to any different place
Cause next time that you see me, I might not be awake
Take what we need and give the rest this shit away

[Chris Orrick]
So take me to the universe where Chris is happy
So I can kill him out of spite, get a taste of what it feels like
Delete my hard drive, reinsert me in the Matrix
Had enough of this condition we call real life
Cause in this rap shit, people treat me like Chip Baskets
But Louie had to jack it, so now I just skip past it
Speaking of sad masturbation
Losers on computers give me a bad reputation
After careful consideration
My name isn't Red Pill, I had to change it
I'm going by my born-name
So if you got the time to waste to @ me 'bout it
Please hang your head in your shame
(...Weirdos)

[Chorus]
