Lyrics

The first time I saw you you worked selling hot dog And stealing your mom's VCR You sold your Nintendo for a shitty drum set That you sold for a shittier car I remember you hitting your girlfriend Once or twice when she got in your face You come sell us weed or you'd just watch TV And she'd sit in your Chevy and wait The first time I saw you you worked at the lakeview With that guy with those bad tattoos Someone had broken your heart And you worked it out fucking the regular crew Your smile was amazing, your apartment was tiny Your arms and your back were all bruised Sometimes you wore glasses that you didn't like Over eyes that were sparkly blue Howdy stranger, how ya been? A million distant memories of a million distant friends The last time I saw you we split a pitcher or two At some hillbilly bar Your heart was all shattered, your hair was all greasy and long And your hands were all hard I remember saying to dump your girlfriend She was making both of us sick It's not a lot, but it's what I got It's harder and harder to stick to the script It's harder and harder and harder And harder and harder and harder these days It's harder and harder and harder And harder and harder and harder to stay
