Living The Dream [Cuttin' Grass Version]

Well, time and time again Lord
I've been going through the motion
It's a means to an end
But the ends don't seem to meet
Walking around living the dream
Anytime I take the notion
'Til the truth comes bubbling up so bittersweet

Ain't no point getting outta bed
When you ain't living the dream
Like making a big old pot of coffee
When you ain't got no cream
I don't need to change my strings
The dirt don't hurt the way I sing
Lord, I don't have to do a Goddamn thing
Except sit around and wait to die

Well I've been waiting on an angel waitress
To come and take my order
Tell me all about the special today
Staring at a puddle of mud in my spoon
Couldn't be much bolder
Hoping them circles on the paper
Don't call back telling me to start today

Oh, that old man upstairs, He wears a crooked smile
Staring down on the chaos he created
He said son if you ain't having fun
Just wait a little while
Momma's gonna wash it all away
And she thinks mercy's overrated

Ain't no point getting outta bed
When you ain't living the dream
Like making a big old pot of coffee
When you ain't got no cream
Lord, I don't need to change my strings
The dirt don't hurt the way I sing
Lord, I don't have to do a Goddamn thing
Except sit around and wait to die
Lord, I don't have to do a Goddamn thing
Except sit around and wait to die
