My seratonin's rationed, I'm coughing
I kind of caught the blues
But you won't catch me complaining
To the super or the news
Because the carrot's going to dangle
Until the diamond is appraised
And all that talk made me feel rich, baby
But tell me, who is going to pay
For braces to make straight
All that Colgate keep my white tooth innocence
My smile is in sad shape
All the dead weight I got tired of carrying
It's got me looking for a friend
Or a crutch I can depend on

There's endless entertainment
Thinking the world is going to end
I've lived some nights convinced of it
But I keep waking up again
With my girl wrapped around my body
And a towel wrapped around my head
She said, "You passed out in the bathtub, angel
I thought that you were dead"

Don't die on me, don't tread on me
My love, my love is not the enemy
You don't have to be no one's biography
Yeah, they try to write you down and hope you go crazy

So don't, so don't, don't fall for that Christ bait
It's about as passe as rockstar arrogance
Tomorrow's a new day but it's that same face
And you'll be wearing it
Now you don't have to be content
But you do have to get on with it

    General Comment:All the lyrics are right in the version I have from when he played it in Utrecht, Holland in February, except at the end of the first verse after "My smile is in sad shape.
    all the dead weight I got tired of carrying. It's got me looking for a friend or a crutch I can depend on."

    In my version, he says "Tomorrow's a new day and it's that I got tired of carrying."

    But we all know how Conor changes/messes up lyrics regularly so.

    General Comment:this song is quite nice, but does anyone else think it sounds like a paint-by-numbers bright eyes song? The first time I've seen the lyrics I thought it was someone making fun of Conor's style of writing and typical themes.
