five iron frenzy - where 0 meets fifteen lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
my car broke down in arizona
have to ride the bus again
at ten-o-clock on tuesday night
with thirteen cents and a broken pen
i put my backpack on the bench
tell two people i don’t smoke
see the cop across the street
he thinks that i am selling dope

[pre-chorus]
i could have walked another block
to get away from the scene
why does it always come to this
where zero meets fifteen?

[verse 2]
and so i gave my thirteen cents
to the man who peed his pants
he p-sses out and falls on me
i watch my change fall from his hand
i see the lady next to me
holds her baby black blue
the junkie gutter-punks keeps asking
where i got my new tattoo

[pre-chorus]
what does it matter anyway
thirteen cents or all i own?
how can i ever save the world
on cup-o-soup and student loans?

[chorus]
i want to try and save the world
but it never goes that way
god i don’t know what to do
down at colfax and broadway

[verse 3]
now the man with no shoes on
says i don’t know how to play
he says i fumble all the time
he thinks that i am john elway
i put my face down in my hands
water wells inside my eyes
what do i have to give them?
does it matter if i try?

[pre-chorus]
i can’t stand to see you suffer
i try to intellectualize
a formula to end you pain
it doesn’t work
god knows i’ve tried

[bridge]
sometimes my cup is overfilled
sometimes i’m too afraid that i’m going to spill
