lyrics

[Voice recording]
(Is it recording?) Yup- what up, Kara? Happy birthday, CC[?]. Uh... I know you're probably turnin' up but... just wanted to wish you a happy birthday and talk to you for a minute... but I hope it was a good one, Bear Bear[?]. Um, I hope yo- I mean it look like you're showing well. Keep killin' em, smack a white man, I'll talk to you later, peace

[Verse 1]
Damn the dickhead blues
When your time becomes somebody else’s refuge
Damn the dickhead blues
Make a vacation outta you
Damn the dickhead blues
When you are stuck sinking in someone’s lagoon
Like a spoon drowns in a stеw
What kind of meal are they making of you?
[Pre-Chorus]
Thinking cupid calls for you
End up gum on somеone’s shoe
Makes me feel like I don’t have a clue

[Breakdown]
My dilemma is always a dickhead
Who’s drunk on the daily news
Like coyotes in culottes
Clawin' for coffee in open-toed shoes
I'm no longer amused by losers
Who find themselves losing me
That’s why I choose

[Chorus]
I’m not as worthless as I once thought
I am pretty top-notch
I am pretty top-notch
I am pretty top-notch
I’m useful

[Verse 2]
Damn the dickhead blues
When ur feeling as broke as a bottle of booze
Damn the dickhead blues
Like a soda straw strangling you

[Pre-Chorus]
Thinking cupid calls for you
And end up gum on someone’s shoe
Makes me feel like I don’t have a clue

[Refrain]
If I had a heart, if I had a heart
If I had a heart, if I had a heart
I’d know where to start, I’d know where to start
I’d know where to start, I’d know where to start
If I had a heart, if I had a heart
If I had a heart, if I had a heart
I’d know where to start (Start)
I’d know where to start (Start, start)
I’d know where to start (Start)
I’d know where to start (Start, start)
If I had a heart, if I had a heart
If I had a heart, if I had a heart
I’d know where to start (Start)
I’d know where to start (Start, start)
I’d know where to start
If I–
I’d know–
If I–
If I–
Know where
If I–
If I had–
[Outro]
I’m not as worthless as I once thought
I am pretty top-notch
I am pretty top-notch
I am pretty top-notch
I’m useful
