I set my radio alarm for six-thirty sharp
Took a shower and shave while the sky was still dark
Got a ride from my neighbour cause the car wouldn't start
And when we got downtown you know there's no place to park
I am sitting at my desk by a quarter past nine
Got a talkin' from my boss because I wasn't on time
He's half my age and his suit is more expensive than mine
At this rate I'll make a partner by the time that I die
But at least I'm not a musician
[???] minutes singing and
At least I'm not a musician
(What the hell am I gonna do without my shitty job?)
You know I tried to be an artist
Though I kept things pretty low-key
Once I drew a pair of hands
But they came to life and choked me
So I battled off the hands
I sketched a flaming sword
But the thing went limp and flaccid
And my audience got bored
They said "At least you don't design poster
For local indie rock thugs
And have to deal with shady promoters
Who only want to pay you with drugs"
At least I'm not a musician
(At least I'm not a musician)
At least I'm not a musician
(At least I'm not a musician)
At least I'm not a musician
