Love she sees apart from me
Possessed behind the eyes
Apart from frightening
The moaning and biting
Seems to be a nice guy
And I know what she thinks
When she looks at me
When she looks with such despair
You're not the only one around here
Who needs a bit of fresh air
'Cause I'm a sad sack
Post teen
Could have been a love machine
No dream
Concrete
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train
Fast lane
Caught up in a dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Working like a zombie
Like a zombie
Well this old place here
Man, it's falling apart
She's on the road as she goes
But she won't get far
I'm on a show to parole
To the toad in a hole
I've gotta grow some roots
Gotta prop up the bar
I've got bloodshot eyes
And there's blood in my teeth
I've got a ripped up jacket
And a friend who's a thief
Well, I'm a coughing out my mouth
Trying to pull it out
But the fire inside keeps burning
Burning out
'Cause I'm a sad sack

No pain, no gain
Working like a zombie

Oh, you're running the situation
Don't be afraid to be a friend
'Cause I won't hurt you girl
Or leave you unsaid
You make me live enough to love again
'Cause I'm a sad sack
