hey, buddy, tell me what pisses you off
tell me you're angry and that you can't stop
give me the bile you're trying to keep down
all adolescent and hissy and proud

hey, buddy, show me the shit that you're in
all of the stuff you can't stand to forgive
then tell me everything's gonna work out
say we're not too sick to stand and shout

and so i don't know what you're worried about
i don't know what you're worried about

oh, i wake up at three A.M.
with a crack in my neck and a half-moon split in my forehead
oh, la lai lai

my breath is steady; i'm alive, i guess
but a runaway train by definition never gets to rest
oh, la lai lai

wake up, and i stink of bad coffee and sweat
and then we just freshen and try to forget
oh, la lai lai

hey, buddy, tell me that we're up in the clouds
and we're not coming down, and, oh, whatever am i worried about?
oh, whatever am i worried about?

hey, buddy! when you look around, do you see
people we ain't meant to be
and what does that make you believe?
i don't know what you're worried about

hey, buddy, break me down, tell me i'm wrong
tell me i've stewed in myself for too long
i can't decide what'd be worse to believe
we're both just as bad or you're better than me

hey, buddy, i think i'm sick of your grin
all of your highs wear my patience too thin
can't get ahead, but then, who's keeping score?
hey, buddy, i don't like you any more

no words, no doubt
and i don't know what you're worried about
