Junkpile

[Verse 1]

I kicked the shelf at the Junkpile, one big crash

Sluggo's collection of broken glass

I said, "Every time I take my shoes off

Someone's gotta come along and try them on

You know what I mean?"

[Chorus]

It could've been such a wonderful year

I wonder what went wrong

[Verse 2]

Help me back to last year, now that was something else

Give me something to escape from besides myself

Beside me, inside me, growl or scowl, I don't care

You could sublet my future, I'm not in the picture

I'm not there

[Chorus]

It could've been such a wonderful picture

I wonder what went wrong

[Verse 3]

Someone stole my anger

Someone stole my girl and left me with a cold shoulder

And Sluggo said, "How can someone steal from you

Something that you never owned?"

I said, "Yeah, it's a damn good trick

I wonder how the hell they do it"

What do we own but ourselves, really?

And we spend all our time trying to give that away

[Chorus]

It could've been such a wonderful year

It could've been such a wonderful year

It could've been such a wonderful year

But now it's just another day
