When I got off work I was feelin’ fine
Memorial day weekend I was gonna spend some time
Writing and relaxing and soaking it up
Wasting my life away without a thought
Wasting my life away without a thought
Having short freedom from my life at work
Smelling the flowers like I’ve been taught

I crashed my car and I stepped on a nail
So much for my relaxing tail
Life can get so twisted up sometimes
When is the day it will be alright

I went into work early
Got off at 2:30
Everything seemed like it was going fine
I was looking forward to playing my guitar
Little did I know I was about to go down

I crashed my car and I stepped on a nail
So much for my relaxing tail
Life can get so twisted up sometimes
When is the day it will be alright

I get tired of hearing these stupid stories
Over and over they get so boring
The truth of the matter is this is our lives
Boring or not your sentenced to life
I wish you all the best while your living your term
If your living my life your sure to get burned
