Key:
F# Couch-ridden - nothing's on the
A# television. Hungover from another night of binging.
B So hungry - nothing's in the
C# fridge, and I'm bored.
F# Smoked-out - I shower, and it
A# isn't helping. Nothing left to do but bang my head against the
B wall, and wait around for the day
C# to end. And I say to myself... [chorus 1]
F# A# B "You're such a fuckup".
C# Everything is a disaster.
F# A# B Watching the clock tick doesn't
C# make the day go faster.
D# Last night's fight has taken its
C# toll on me.

F# A# B C# I bleed bad luck, so I won't ever ask for
D# your company, cuz you might put
C# the blame on me.

[verse 2]
F# Head still pounding late into the
A# evening. I order pizza - everything I'm eating
B comes right back up the way it
C# went in.
F# Too tired to sleep, and my ears
A# are ringing. Loud music, screaming, and a lot of drinking.
B Phone off the hook - I wanna stay
C# inside. And I say to myself... [chorus 2]
F# A# B "You're such a fuckup".
C# Everything is a disaster.
F# A# B Watching the clock tick doesn't
C# make the day go faster.
D# Last night's fight has taken its
C# toll on me.
