I'm Useless

Queers · Day Late & A Dollar Short [1996]

Of all the things I don't wanna do

Is sit and bite off more than I can chew

I used to have a job but now I'm through.

I guess I'm pretty stupid, but so are you.

'Cause I'm useless.



My girlfriend went and left me.

My landlord kicked me out.

I'm lonely scared and smelly

I wanna die, but don't know how.



He's seven years old, and he's dying of old age.

And I don't give a fuck about any of you limp wristed funny boys



But I'm useless.

But I'm useless.

But I'm useless.

But I'm useless.



Useless!

Useless!

Useless!

Useless!

Useless!

I'm Useless
