World On My Shoulders (And You On My Ass)

(albüm: Wrong Songs: Musings From The Shallow End - 2023)

Honey, you know ten hrs is a short day at work
I can't walk straight, my back gets so sore
And here you're acting like it's the end of the world
Cause I left my socks on the floor

I got the boss barking at me, and you barking at home
It's honey do this, and honey why'd you do that?
It's blowing my mind that I've held up this long
With the world on my shoulders and you on my ass

I used to think bullshit was just a part of life
And I could count on some good with the bad
But it's becoming a battle, I can't bear to fight
The world on my shoulders and you on my ass

Honey just like you, I got a whole lot on me
It wouldn't kill you to give that some thought
And sometimes it'd be nice if you'd lend me your ear
Instead of always just chewing mine off

Now I'm not a gambling man, but I'd be willing to bet
I ain't the worst problem you've ever had
And here lately I can't help but envy the dead
With the world on my shoulders and you on my ass

Yeah, I used to think that bullshit was just part of life
And I could count on some good with the bad
But it's becoming a battle I can't bear to fight
The world on my shoulders and you on my ass
I've got the world on my shoulders, and you on my... ass
