I Wish Somebody Would Build A Bridge (so I Can Get Over Myself) Lyrics - Thirsty Merc - Thirsty Merc

Munching on a ham and cheese sando in the morning on Friday 

Cruising down the Pacific Highway 

Thinking 'bout the day ahead 

I paid the rent cheque, got my registration and phone bill 

If those two don't overthrow me the dogs will 

But heck at least I know the taste of bread 

Why do I seem to spend my whole damn life chasing paper? 

I'm like an actor turned singer turned waiter 

I'll wait around until I meet with my maker 

Then I'll sign up for AA or something 

I just wish there was some other way to get myself somewhere 

This little strip of earth and all that I've done there 

I'm like a bull-ant on the leg of a sunchair 

Under a magnifying glass

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

I wish somebody would build a bridge 

So I could get over myself 

On my own I'm wasting my time 

I take a phonecall on the mobile while I'm checking the meter 

One sec I need to turn up that little speaker 

It's getting noisy in this little town 

We're like America we love to make a ho-har out of jackshit 

I never ever really seemed to fit 

But now I'm stuck so deep in all of this 

Come to think of it I might as well be travelling backwards 

It's been an hour and I'm only in Chatswood 

I hate the way that I'm becoming a product 

Go pick me up for $24.95 

I'm on sale and it's retail in the world of deception 

You can treat a man if he can't get erections 

Is there a pill for my lack of direction? 

Thanks mate, I'll have a pack of those 

Photos 

I wish somebody would build a bridge 

So I could get over myself 

On my own I'm wasting my time 

I wish somebody would build a bridge 

So I could get over myself 

On my own I'm losing my mind 

It's all good I got a broom and a cheap persian rug now 

I can sweep the whole thing outta my sight now 

Outta sight, outta mind 

I'll keep on going until I'm pushing 30 or 40 

And as long as I don't do something naughty 

I love my wife, what a life 

She comes home to find me spread on the floor from blood poisoning 

I popped a whole lot of pills and I'm shaking 

And there's a needle sticking out of my arm, I ain't faking I'm zoning in and zoning out 

You wanna help me, don't call me an ambulance honey 

Just get a silver service cab this is funny 

Just one passenger please, going up my own ass 

You take credit card? Fuck this! 

I wish somebody would build a bridge 

So I could get over myself 

On my own I'm wasting my time 

I wish somebody would build a bridge 

So I could get over myself 

On my own I'm losing my mind 

I wish somebody would build a bridge 

So I could get over myself 

On my own I'm wasting my time 

I'm wasting my life 

I wish somebody would build a bridge 

So I could get over myself 

On my own I'm losing my mind
