The DJ Is Crying For Help

(album: The Maybe Man - 2023)

Everyone's laughing at me
But not like they used to
The room's spinning all around me
But not like I'm used to

Hired, hired, can I get hired
I got no skills except getting high
I'm trying, trying, I can start Friday
You've wasted your life but thanks for applying

Hey, now, hold up, we were fun as hell
I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell
Now I don't know what to do with myself
You got older 'cause you good at life
I'm all seventeen at thirty-five
Now I don't know if there's anything else

The DJ is crying for help
The DJ is crying for help
Don't know what to do with myself
Hey now, hold up, we were fun as hell
I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell
Now I don't know what to do with myself
The DJ is crying for help

Everyone's tripping on pills
But now they're prescribed too
And everyone's stacking their bills
But not 'cause they like to

Oh, hired, hired, can I get hired
Yeah, I fucked up, but I did it my way
Trying, trying, I can start Friday
Getting a life is a little like dying

Hey, now, hold up, we were fun as hell
I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell
Now I don't know what to do with myself
You got older 'cause you're good at life
I'm all seventeen at thirty-five
Now I don't know if there's anything else

The DJ is crying for help
Don't leave me out
The DJ is crying for help
Don't leave me out
Don't know what to do with myself
Hey now, hold up, we were fun as hell
I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell
Now I don't know what to do with myself
The DJ is crying for help

You got older 'cause you good at life (Drowning me out)
I'm all seventeen at thirty-five
Now I don't know if there's anything else
The DJ is crying for help

And now I'm all (I'm all) alone (Alone)
Waiting for the beat to drop
Be kind to me, be kind and wait it out
And now I'm all (I'm all) alone (Alone)
Waiting 'til the party starts
Be kind to me, be kind and wait it out

And now I'm all alone
Waiting 'til the party starts
