lyrics

Sometimes I sit at home, I am just Bossin' round
searchin for the words that might fit the sound.
But everything that's worth or needed to be said,
already's said and done like a million times before.
And all I try to say, well it all comes out wrong and
nothing's like a singer without a song.

Nothing's like a singer without a song,
nothing's like a singer without a song.

Like a rat in the gutter, whittered roses in the waist,
a car in the junkyard that no one wants to drive.
So I drown myself in sorrow just to fill that soulless soul
and I wish that I could borrow words to phrase my blues.
So I play to all my favorite tunes that I love now for so long
and from time to time I'm thinking I wish I wrote this song.

I wish I wrote this song,
I wish I wrote this song.
