Lyrics

1, 2, 3

I got up and I drove to work
On the wrong side of the road
And what the hell would I do ?
I must admit I didn't know
And Andrew came along y'all
To add a couple of lines or so
I got one I finished yesterday

And I got three-point-six to go

One down and three-point-six tomorrow
And I'm out of here
One down and three-point-six tomorrow
And I'm out of here

People tell me "Ben, just make up
Junk and turn it in",
But I never was alright with turnin' in a bunch of shit
Don't like wasting time on music
That won't make me proud,
But now I've found a reason
To sit right down and shit some out

One down and three-point-six tomorrow
And I'm out of here
One down and three-point-six tomorrow
And I'm out of here

Yeah, yeah

I love you more than
Any man has loved before
I love you more than
All the stars up in the sky
I think that we should settle down
And live happily forever
After...

What do you think of that?

I'm really not complaining
I realize it's just a job
And I hate hearing bellyaching
Rockstars whine and sob
'cause I could be bussin' tables
I could well be pumping gas
Yeah, but I get paid much finer
For playing piano and kissing ass

And it's one-point-six yesterday
And three-point-six last

One down and three-point-six tomorrow
And I'm out of here
One down and three-point-six tomorrow
And I'm out of here

One down and three-point-six
One down and three-point-six tomorrow
And I'm out of here
