Dressed to Depress
Dressed to Depress: Embracing Life's Chaos in Punk Poetry
Lyrics
I got a snotty nose
I have a snotty nose
I got nappy hair
I have nappy hair
My mommy don't love me
My mother doesn't love me
And my daddy don't care, no
My father doesn't care
My sister's a slut
My sister is promiscuous
And my brother's a drunk
My brother is an alcoholic
And I'm standing in the mirror now
I am looking at myself in the mirror
Getting myself all dressed up
Preparing to dress up
Everything's okay
People say everything is okay
At least that's what they say
Despite challenges, there is an appearance of normalcy
One foot in the gutter
One aspect of my life is in a bad situation
The other's in the grave
Another aspect is heading towards destruction
Punch the clock I'm your slave
I conform to a routine, feeling like a slave
For the rest of my life 12 hours a day
I work long hours daily
No future, no way
No prospects for the future
I was born to lose and that's okay
I acknowledge that I was born to lose
Dressed to, dressed to depress
Dressed in a way that reflects depression
You couldn't ask for anything less
This appearance is intentionally depressing
Dressed to, dressed to depress
Continuation of the theme of intentional depression in attire
My whole life's a fucked up mess
Describing the chaotic state of my entire life
Dressed to depress
Emphasizing the intentional depressing appearance
You couldn't ask for anything less
Reiteration of the intentional depressing attire
Dressed to, dressed to depress
Continuation of the theme of intentional depression in attire
My whole life is a fucked up mess
Summary: My entire life is in a messed-up state
