Famous for Nothing

[Verse 1] The barrel fire's fading, my pals are disappearing Another night is passing but I won't go It's 2AM at townie and things are going my way Three buds, a glove and a foot of snow [Verse 2] There's two little shits selling joints on the hill And the kids down the lot are burning cruisers for a thrill See we had each other, it was us against the world Famous for nothing, yeah, nothing was our world [Pre-Chorus] Well, these lies won't save me Don't you know, don't you know From the time that made me Here we go, here we go [Verse 3] The courts are filling up, all the kids are coming down For a head start on the troubles of a long night on the town Yeah, thank God it's Saturday and half my problems go away Sure, the big one's on the way, but I know how to handle that [Verse 4] 9 to 3 on weekdays, on the hour Sundays The good lord was calling me but I wasn't up From the convent to the rectory and over in the sacristy I'm a goddamn travesty and that's just my luck [Pre-Chorus] Well, these lies won't save me Don't you know, don't you know From the time that made me Here we go, here we go Here we go, yeah [Chorus] Their gang went my way for basketball My gang went their way for alcohol When we met it wasn't pretty at all Still the bells of St. Mary's kept ringing [Bridge] 9 to 3 on weekdays, on the hour Sundays Jesus Christ was calling me Here we go, yeah [Chorus] Their gang went my way for basketball My gang went their way for alcohol When we met it wasn't pretty at all Still the bells of St. Mary's kept ringing [Chorus] Their gang went my way for basketball My gang went their way for alcohol When we met it wasn't pretty at all Still the bells of St. Mary's were ringing [Outro] The bells of St. Mary's were ringing
