Lyrics
What a rare occasion
Reflecting on a rare occurrence or event
Dinner alone was a crime
Having dinner alone felt wrong or unusual
Until a strange sensation
Experiencing a strange feeling or emotion
When I asked if I could be your guy
Expressing interest in being in a relationship
I never said it'd be easy
Acknowledging that things won't be easy
I'm the last man that I'd ever date
Self-deprecating humor about personal issues
Always tired, lacking desire
Feeling constantly fatigued and lacking motivation
To feel enough to start the day
Struggling to feel enough energy to start the day
What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
Repetition of the idea that someone is a burdensome, emotionally unresponsive individual
What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
-Living can be simple
Suggesting that life could be uncomplicated if one avoids effort
If you try your best to never try
Encouraging avoiding effort as a means of simplicity
What a lucky devil
Admiring someone who benefits without facing consequences
Who reaps but never does his time
One who avoids responsibility and still enjoys rewards
And everybody's happy
People are content when someone else is blamed or suffers
When you're the victim, I'm the crime
Feeling like the perpetrator in a situation where someone else is blamed
Who could fail, it's easy as braille
Implying that success is effortless for some
If you just read between the lines
Understanding the hidden or implied meanings in situations
What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
Repetition emphasizing the burden of dealing with someone unresponsive or emotionally distant
What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
-What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
-What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
-January has come
Noting the arrival of January (possibly a metaphor for new beginnings)
But I wish he'd knock
Desiring a change or interruption in the current situation
If I liked to spend my evenings in darkness I'd go to the betting shop
Expressing a preference for something different from the current routine or environment
And put it all on red
Imagining reckless behavior as an escape from the mundane
And crawl back into bed
-Find a series brainlessly easy
Seeking mindless distractions and self-medication
And drink 'til I've a lolling head
-Melt away in sheets
Describing a desire to escape reality through alcohol and fantasies
Warm from all the sweat
-Dream I'm famous, wake up shameless
-And sore from a night of regret
-Ah-h, fuck
An exclamation of frustration or resignation
What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
Continued emphasis on the frustrating and burdensome nature of dealing with an unresponsive individual
What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
-What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
-What a drag, he's a catatonic skinbag
-Catatonic skinbag, catatonic skinbag
Reiteration of the term 'catatonic skinbag' to emphasize emotional detachment or unresponsiveness
