lyrics

It feels like everybody's always waiting for me 'cause I'm always last
No matter how fast I go everybody speeds right on past me

I seriously try to leave on time
But it doesn't work, I don't know why
I think I have some kind of disease
That makes me tardy to every party
They're like "hurry up man, jeez"
The latest I've been was like three hours
I honestly don't know how it happened but
I don't care anymore

Now I have been a forgetful boy as long as I can remember
Forget my shit so often my mom calls me the Absent-Minded Professor

I lost my license like a thousand times
And I'm not saying it was taken away
Like I haven't found them to this day
I also lost the keys to my van
It's a 2006 Dodge Caravan
It's white - I just thought I'd tell you that
And if you want a ride in it, I'm you're man
Cuz I don't care anymore

I took a little leisurely walk through East Hastings in Vancouver
To a man in a window a guy on the street was screaming bloody murder

He said "You better let me in,
"You're keeping me away from my family and kin
"And ruining my relationships
"Now you're gonna die"
I walked away from that situation
On my way to the subway station
And continued westward on East Hastings
And saw some rather greasy things
Like people selling stuff on the street
But the stuff they were selling was upsetting
Like packages of unrefrigerated meat
I was hungry but I didn't ask for the price
I am so desensitized

But I don't care anymore
I'm desensitized!
I don't care anymore
I really don't care
I don't care anymore
