lyrics

I lived by myself for most of my life
But times are tough and the rent is tight
I gotta new guy and he just moved in
He's gotta pointy beard and a pointy grin

Well he parties all night and he sleeps all day
And tells me that his work is play
He never says no to drugs or drink
He says boy lemme tell you what I think

He says hell yeah
Just add alcohol and watch it burn

Well I never see him eat and he keeps his door shut
But I hear him fucking and he fucks a lot
A different girl every night and it's always the same
They always leave his room in shame

I tried a couple times to keep up with him
He drank a bottle of whiskey I drank a bottle of gin
And when I passed out he poured himself another drink
He said boy lemme tell you what I think

Now there's nothing left that I can do
He's got his hooks inside of me
I pray to god I can survive this and he says
Don't pray to god pray to me
He says don't pray to god pray to me
