I'm so tired, I need sleep I'm talking to my pillow case, what's wrong with me? I make mistakes, but them's the breaks I'm crying out for anyone to come and rescue me Talk about a new wave (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh!) Talk about a way to save the day (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh!) Talk about a new world Just not today Hey there, why you look so sad? What made you so mad that you can't You can't get over it Hey there, why you look so hurt? You get what you deserve, you know, here we go Why don't you cry about it? Life's a bitch, and so am I If you want it bad enough, there's lots of easy ways to die Talk about a new wave (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh!) Talk about a way to save the day (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh!) Talk about a new world Just not today Hey there, why you look so sad? What made you so mad that you can't You can't get over it Hey there, why you look so hurt? You get what you deserve, you know, here we go Why don't you cry about it? Talk about a new wave (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh!) Talk about a way to save the day (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh!) Talk about a new world Just not today Hey there, why you look so sad? What made you so mad that you can't You can't get over it Hey there, why you look so hurt? You get what you deserve, you know, here we go Why don't you, why can't you So tough when no-one knows you No homies, so lonely Why don't you cry about it now?
