Slob
Weezer · Maladroit
I won't pick up the phone
And I won't listen to messages
Sent by someone who calls up and says
I don't like how you're living my life
Get yourself a wife
Get yourself a job
You're living a dream
Don't you be a slob
Leave me again
Don't hang out
In my den
Waiting for little clues
To appear
That I drank some of Grandaddy's beer
I don't like how you're living my life
Get yourself a wife
Get yourself a job
You're living a dream
Don't you be a slob, slob, slob
slob...
