[Verse 1]
Every night I’m lying here
The world crashing through my ears
I always hear the same damn thing:
“You can’t live your life hanging on a string.”
He’s always saying
“Stop complaining. You really can’t ever expect too much
Boy, you were born with the common touch.”
[Chorus]
And we fall and fall and fall and fall
With our heads soaked up in alcohol
One hand on a cigarette, I swear I still got some good moves left
I’ve been fifty-eight since I was twenty-three
I got sixty-nine problems but one ain’t me
And seriously I don’t give a fuck if my answer isn’t good enough
[Verse 2]
Hey, there, tell me man, what’s the answer to this riddle then?
Is it heroin?
Or Jesus Christ?
Big-ass books?
Or sleepless nights?
I had a few of those and everyone knows
That the common touch ain’t worth the price
Every night I’m lying here
The world crashing through my ears
I always hear the same damn thing:
“You can’t live your life hanging on a string.”
He’s always saying
“Stop complaining. You really can’t ever expect too much
Boy, you were born with the common touch.”
[Chorus]
And we fall and fall and fall and fall
With our heads soaked up in alcohol
One hand on a cigarette, I swear I still got some good moves left
I’ve been fifty-eight since I was twenty-three
I got sixty-nine problems but one ain’t me
And seriously I don’t give a fuck if my answer isn’t good enough
[Verse 2]
Hey, there, tell me man, what’s the answer to this riddle then?
Is it heroin?
Or Jesus Christ?
Big-ass books?
Or sleepless nights?
I had a few of those and everyone knows
That the common touch ain’t worth the price
