Bum rap

(The Brigadier)
Words and Music by Matt Williams
Something went wrong today
I didn't want to play
I wanted to stay home on my own again
I've got no axe to grind
I don't mind that i'm behind
Sometimes I just like to be on my own again

There's a Bum Rap, taking everyday of my life
Bum rap, i'm sure I can accomodate you

I don't want to get out of bed
I don't like whats in my head
And only snacks and treats will make me feel alive
I skive a lot off work
They must think i'm a jerk
Either that or just a lazy turd

There's a Bum Rap, taking everyday of my life
Bum rap, i'm sure I can accomodate you

Sometimes I feel lost
Sometimes I feel possessed
Sometimes, like i'm losing my mind
I feel like i've been tossed
Into a deep ravine
Never to be seen or heard again
When I am down I forget, how much you mean to me

Something went right today
I said now "Don't delay"
I must get up and get on top of things
You helped me to survive
You make me feel revived
and most of all you rid me of the most despised

Bum Rap, taking everyday of my life
Bum rap, i'm sure I can accomodate you
