I’m sitting in the driveway in a car that won't start
Just another broken piece of my pathetic-ass heart
I got a notice on the glass saying "pay up or leave"
I got a lot of big dreams that I’ll never achieve
My friends are all married and they’re buying a house
I’m stuck in this basement playing cat and mouse
With a debt collector calling every hour on the dot
I’m the poster child for everything that you are not.
(Pre-Chorus)
Yeah, I’m a joke, I’m a mess, I’m a total mistake
I’m the heavy-duty pressure that’s about to make me break
Look me in the eyes, tell me what do you see?
A giant flashing sign saying "don't be like me."
(Chorus)
’Cause I’m a deadbeat, I’m a drop-out, I’m a waste of space
I’m a permanent blemish on the human race
I’m the king of the dirt, I’m the lord of the low
I’m the guy you gotta ask to leave the show
I’m a loser, I’m a loser, and I’m proud of the fact
That I’ve never had a single thing together or intact
Yeah, I’m a loser!
(Verse 2)
I went to the party just to stand by the wall
Then I spilled a whole beer and I started to fall
I ripped my only jeans from the crotch to the knee
Now the whole entire room is just laughing at me
I tried to play it cool, tried to make a little joke
But my voice did that thing where it started to croak
So I ran out the door and I tripped on the curb
I’m the definition of a "do not disturb."
(Bridge)
Every time I try to win I end up coming in last
I’m a future full of holes and a garbage-can past
I’m a zero, I’m a nothing, I’m a big fat "no"
I’m the guy that’s always stuck at the red light, go!
JUST GO!
(Chorus)
’Cause I’m a deadbeat, I’m a drop-out, I’m a waste of space
I’m a permanent blemish on the human race
I’m the king of the dirt, I’m the lord of the low
I’m the guy you gotta ask to leave the show
I’m a loser, I’m a loser, and I’m proud of the fact
That I’ve never had a single thing together or intact
Yeah, I’m a loser!
(Outro)
