[Verse 1]
They say ambition is an enemy of greatness
And greatness is an enemy of fame
When I pick up my guitar and I try to write a song
I think of what my mentor used to say:
[Chorus 1]
"Who fuckin' gives a rat's ass Steve, just write a love song
Cause they'll keep your belly full and your wallet lined
Don't bother these nice people with your sad sack songs
If you ask me, I think they're just a waste of time"
[Verse 2]
Inspiration is the best friend of my sorrow
And sorrow is the best friend of my drink
Well, I wanna look myself in the eye tomorrow
But I'm too worried about what other folks will think
[Chorus 2]
"Who fuckin' gives a rat's ass Steve, just write a love song
See a counselor if you need to ease your troubled mind
And could you please sit over there?
I don't want you cryin' in my beer
Do you want some cheese with all that wine?"
