Indigo Girls Cold Beer And Remote Control Lyrics

Cold Beer And Remote Control Lyrics



All of my days have been misspent

Stuffing out the sofa and the antenna's bent

Inside my heart's bustin' out at the seams

I work for the impossible American dream

I got a job at the grocery store

A few bucks an hour and not much more

The world comes in just to take things away

And eat it all up and then they sleep into day 



I try not to care I would lose my mind

Running 'round the same thing time after time

Only two things bound to soothe my soul cold beer and remote control 



Once upon a time I was nobody's fool

Two jobs and showing up for school

I guess it comes apart so little by little

You don't know you're there till you're stuck in the middle

So I try not care I would lose my mind

Running 'round the same thing time after time

Only two things bound to soothe my soul cold beer and remote control 



Sit down the room is dark the blurry graffiti on the benches across at the
public park

The plastic's black and buttoned the haze is blue

And all I want is nothing to do 



'Cause it's a long walk to the bus stop 

It's a long wait for the turning clock

A two-tired car sitting up on the blocks

And things I put aside like that pile of rocks 



I try not to care I would lose my mind

Running 'round the same thing time after time

Only two things bound to soothe my soul cold beer and remote control 



I try not to care I would lose my mind

Running 'round the same thing time after time

Only two things bound to soothe my soul

Cold beer and remote control
