Same old shit

It would be nice to have new strings on our guitars and if they stayed in tune
It would be better if our fingers weren't raw and our blisters hadn't burst like balloons
Things would be easier without cramp in our hands
We would sound better if we were a decent band but we ain't

We could insist on some tuition, play how we was taught
It would be better if we knew four chords but we're only one chord short
Keep on playing moronic stuff
I'll be glad when we've had enough but we ain't

Even though we can't get the words of our songs to fit
We'll keep on playing the same old shit
Keep playing the same old shit

It would be a fine thing if we could sing instead of only shout
It would be better if out throats didn't hurt and we knew what we were singing about
We'd care more if we had something to lose
It would be nice if we had the blues but we ain't
