Lonely Nights, Crowded Room

from Dopamine Depression Datamine by Philip Bosley

/

lyrics

Can't complain about a gig on a Tuesday
But the tips they just ain't flowin' my way
Fancy suits ain't puttin' bread in my jar
It's all going to the push-up bra behind the bar

You'd better play 'em right, don't ruin their evening
Don't step outta line, or put a new twist on an old thing
Drunks calling out for “Freebird” and “more cowbell”
Well, you can be yourself, if no one can tell


Crowded rooms, and lonely nights
Blushing groom, erudite
She smells nice, it's just perfume
Lonely nights, crowded room


Did I even have a chance? Odds were slim
Hired in a panic, fired on a whim
Dropped like a bad date when the season ends
It ain't easy being every band's other boyfriend

Living on ibuprofen and caffeine
Got another ill-fated bad feeling
Falling victim to despair
Stuck underpaid in the lobby of a billionaire


Workin' half and makin' double
Here in my low effort bubble
Play the requests you abhor
Crack a smile, try to endure

Take a look around, break your habits
Do you even know how good you have it?
Sometimes a blessing, sometimes a curse
Don't you know it could be so much worse?
