I'm gonna run what's the point in all this   I've seen it all now and I must admit   being a beggar on an oily old rag   is not a living for me      I'm starving hungry out of money and luck   I'd chew the ass off a low flying duck   protocol here is sodomy style greed   and it's a worry for me      I'm not a member of the modern day   there's someone at it in the bed that I made   they drained the carat out of all the gold hearts   and now they're coming for me      ain't nobody gonna see me cry   I'll be long gone before it's time to die   it's that, or join the material world soon   or they'll be comin' for me      and when I yawn it's because you spoiled my dream   I was in nirvana dreaming all the right things   you came along when all the money runs dry   and point the finger at me      you haven't heard a single word that I've said   I know you'd rather see this little guy dead   I sweep your litter and I hang up your coat   there's noting in it for me      sorry man I'm gonna have my way   I wanna lie here in the bed that I made   thank you porter I can take it from here   the early night is on me      'cause ain't nobody gonna see me down   I'm looking forward to when the time comes 'round   when being alive is being a human again   it's sentimental to me      I've seen it all now and I must admit   it's hard to row in a creek of shit   say goodbye now for the very last time   and take the paddle from me      it's kind of sad we gotta end this way   I'm starting over in a brand new day   being a beggar on an oily old rag    is not a living for me      I'm not offended by the modern day   I burn a candle for the friends that I made   see you round, maybe in heaven some time   don't put your money on me      ain't nobody gonna see me cry   twenty five is not a time to die   mothership's got her boarding hatch down   and she's waiting on me
