Like a Record Player (Lyrics)

I'm like a record player, I keep goin' round With a needle in my arm, making someone else's sound Lately I've been dreaming of blue and empty skies But nothing like that ever crosses read and weary eyes So I'm traveling with bottles So I'm working close with cans Sitting up for hours with my best friends in a van And they say that this ain't living But I don't know what they mean Cuz I don't feel dead, and baby, you look alive to me It's the only game I know how to play The time, the time, to say goodbye Passed us long ago. And I would say I overstayed my welcome, but you know I don't think I'm ever going home Ooh! I don't need your doctor, cuz anyone can see That I had all of these shots But lord, I'm still sick as I can be I need to rest my eyes, so baby come with me Lay down here beside me, keep me warm while I sleep Cuz there's trouble on the way, huh! You'd best believe There always is don't worry, sit and have a drink with me When we go, we got is these days that we made And I ain't gonna waste them being wistful or afraid Without all of you I'd be even lower down You know what I wanna say but I can't get it out The time, the time, to say goodbye passed us long ago And I would say I overstayed my welcome but you know I don't think we're ever going home, home, oh, oh, I don't think we're ever going home, oh no!
