Hey there January Looks like we're alone again Another year is over Left the same way it came in Said that I'd be thinner Said that we'd be better friends But I'm still on the treadmill Change the channel Played by the rules Look where it got me Stones in my shoes Are cutting my feet Oh the way you held me up I never felt quite good enough I made it through the year again With Diet Coke and cigarettes Hey there salutations Wasn't really the end My new year resolutions Used to make a lot more sense All these little problems Like sex and television Got me in a chokehold Self deception Played by the rules Look where it got me Sober is cool But fuck it's boring Oh the way you held me up I never felt quite cool enough And truer words were never said That closeness tends to breed contempt Nowhere Going nowhere Played by the rules Pass me the doob Going nowhere
