Never Do Anything Lyrics

Wiped out down the stairs
I'll bet you there's a song in there
I'm not sure I'm prepared
To write it down

That guy should be me
I'd look much better on TV
Then the world would see
That I can do anything

I can be that, but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything

Let's play tic tac toe
I'll play X, you can be the O
Thoughts of turning pro
Have crossed my mind

I could make a mint
Fill my pockets with more than lint
I'll give you a hint
It involves the internet

I can be that but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything

Don't write me off as an also ran
Just mark me down as an angry man
Got a big chip, you want a fat lip?
How 'bout a mouthful of chiclets?

Life pa*sed me by, but it's not my fault
I'll lick my wounds, could you pa*s the salt?

I can be that, but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that, but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything

If I were the king
All my subjects they would dance and sing
They could kiss my ring and kiss my a*s
When I'm old and gray, I'll look back on my life and say
"Give me one more day, and I'll still never do anything"

I can be that but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
I can be that but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
