Lyrics:

(courtesy of The DM Homepage)

Now my life is easy

My life ain't hard

I'm gonna spend all day

In my fucking backyard

I ain't got no money

Hell, I don't care

My parents let me use their credit cards

I've got nowhere to go

Just hang out on the street

People say I've got no ambition

At least I give a shit

About the stuff I eat

Yeah I care about nutrition

Tried to get a job

At the retail store

But I could not stand the competition

Now I spend all my time

Hangin' out at the shore

Givin' myself a skin condition

I've got nowhere to go

Just moving on my feet

People say I've got no ambition

At least I give a shit

About the stuff I eat

Yeah I care about nutrition

Sometimes I get upset

When I see on the TV

All these people in this

World that are starvin'

But there's nothin' in this world

That could possibly bother me

When I smell the turkey that is carvin'

Boy I'm starving!

Christ I'm starving

My folks say

I gotta get myself a job

Cause they ain't gonna support me

Well if all I am to them

Is just some little slob

Why didn't they abort me?

I guess I'll just hang out

On Broad and South

Livin' by my intuition

At least I give a shit

What I put into my mouth

Yeah I care about nutrition

Nutrition

It's good for me

Nutrition

Like vitamin D

I care I care I care

I give a hell of a shit

Mom and Dad say if I eat all my food

I can go to the hardcore show and see FOD
