Deadbeat Lyrics by The Ocean Party

The Sun Rolled Off The Hills

2011

[Verse 1]
He's never seen me, he's never heard my life
I bet I could convince him this one troubled time
I got my story down and keep my head up
I form a lie of sound, throwing money in my cup
[Chorus]
Should I feel this way? You don't respect me
It's not just me to blame, I'm neglected
I should have finished school, you call me a deadbeat
It's not as easy as it seems, but you'll never be me
[Verse 2]
Wondering if you think art isn't a job to support you
I'm savin' for a car, I can't help you too
Take this as a lesson, pull yourself up off the ground
You're lookin' like a mess now, you should be spat out by this town
[Chorus]
You should feel this way, I don't respect you
You've got yourself to blame, don't feel neglected
You should have finished school, you're a deadbeat
It's as easy it's seems, 'cause you'll never be me
[Outro]
You'll never be me
(You'll never be me)
