Lyrics
Woke up, broke down
Waking up feeling emotionally distressed or financially broke.
Boss callin' me tellin me I'm a clown, see
Feeling criticized by a boss, being considered a joke.
I couldn't hold a conversation let alone a job
Difficulty holding conversations and maintaining a job.
So I should come and get my shit before they throw it out
Being told to retrieve personal belongings before they are discarded.
Typical, I guess the clouds came back for me
Facing recurring challenges or setbacks represented by clouds.
Couldn't run from the spell that's been cast on me
Unable to escape a negative influence or situation.
Last time I got surrounded by gloom I was Lieutenant Dan drunk, screamin' at the moon sayin'
Recalling a past experience of feeling overwhelmed and intoxicated.
Fuck it, let the lines be crossed
Embracing chaos, allowing boundaries to be blurred.
Let's climb up on the roof and toss knives at God
Suggesting defiance by suggesting an act of rebellion against fate or destiny.
I don't need a mindless job I'm fine without it
Rejecting conventional jobs and embracing individuality.
You can keep your nine to five and your high-rise trousers
Disregarding societal norms and expectations.
I got the fifth of bourbon on deck
Having alcohol readily available.
A contact list, full of homies in debt
Having friends in financial trouble listed on a contact list.
So when life deals you nothin' but jokers and holds tens
Coping with life's challenges by getting drunk.
We get drunk off that severance check, man
Using a severance check as a means to cope with difficulties.
It's gonna be a long one
Anticipating a prolonged period of hardship.
It's gonna be a lone one, ay, It's gonna be a long one, oh
Reiterating the expectation of a challenging and lonely journey.
Drinkin' til the sun comes up, and I said
Drinking until sunrise as a way to cope with difficulties.
It's gonna be a lone one, ay, It's gonna be a long one
Emphasizing the expectation of a solitary journey.
(So grab a couple of brews and come on now)
Encouraging others to join in the coping mechanism of drinking.
Fell down, got up
Experiencing setbacks but getting back up.
Found love, got dumped
Experiencing love but facing heartbreak.
Cuz she don't need an unemployed punk runnin' round livin' life like the pile of blues records in his trunk
Being rejected due to unemployment and a chaotic lifestyle.
It's a damn shame, but I don't think I'm gonna miss her
Expressing indifference towards the end of a relationship.
She wants the dog, the house, to call me mister
Describing the ex-partner's desires for a traditional life.
Ironically now she calls me an asshole
Ironically being called names despite the ex-partner's desires.
Call me at her job from the craft store
Receiving calls at work highlighting personal issues.
Told me that I'm dealin' with a disease
Being informed about dealing with personal problems.
I don't wanna succeed
Rejecting the idea of success and assistance.
Anybody that's ever tried to assist me gets it
Expressing resistance to help from others.
I've become a product of the slump
Becoming a reflection of challenging circumstances.
Pig-headed stubborn ass loser of the month, yeah
Labeling oneself as a stubborn loser.
Lost cause on a castle of his junk
Accepting defeat in the midst of chaos.
Tryin' to sweep a mountain of fuck ups under the rug
Trying to hide past mistakes and failures.
Man I get it, all of this has pushed me to the limit
Acknowledging that challenges have pushed one to the limit.
So now I'm gonna drink until I'm spinnin'
Deciding to cope with challenges by drinking excessively.
It's gonna be a long one
Anticipating a prolonged period of drinking to cope with difficulties.
I'm gonna be up all night
Expecting to stay awake throughout the night.
It's gonna be a long one, yeah (x2)
Reiterating the expectation of a long and challenging night.
I'm gonna be up all night
Emphasizing the anticipation of staying awake all night.
It's gonna be a long yeah, a long one yeah, a long long long long one
Repeating the idea of a prolonged and challenging experience.
It's gonna be a long one, ay, It's gonna be a long one, oh
Reiterating the expectation of a challenging and lonely journey.
Drinkin' til the sun comes up, and I said
Drinking until sunrise as a way to cope with difficulties.
It's gonna be a lone one, ay, It's gonna be a long one
Emphasizing the expectation of a solitary journey.
(So grab a couple of brews and come on now)
