Said No One Ever

I wish my boss would pay me less
Or make me work a few more hours
And bless me with the kind of stress
That will weaken my will power

How could I want a nicer truck
With any less hard driven miles
And boy that sunshine really sucks
These rainy days are just my style

This life is too perfect I wouldn’t change a thing
I’m so lucky that nobody treats me like a king
And it keeps getting better oh who the hell needs pleasure
Gimme tough luck forever said no one ever

Don’t wake me up before I fall
Yeah strike me out without a clue
And baby just ignore the call
Next time I want to talk to you

I love to feel like you don’t care
Like we don’t even stand a chance
There’s nothing sweeter than despair
Well it sure beats holding hands

This life is too dandy I wouldn’t change a thing
I’m so lucky that no one ever treats me like a king
And it keeps getting better oh who on earth needs pleasure
Gimme bad times forever said no one ever

While the government is doing such good work
And California’s not on fire
Call me crazy if I’m acting like a jerk
But at least I’m not liar, oh no I’m just inspired
