Alan Arefyev - Shmamsteryam

One of these days I'll be on my own
On an air mattress in another world
A smelly old pillow hardened up from tears
And the sneakers I've been wearing for the past six years

One of these days I'll be in my room
Drinking Sweat from my forehead under every moon
All my friends will be at home eating dinner with their families
While I'm bathing by myself in the nothing that surrounds me.

Nothing at all, chipped closet walls
A light with a pulley, a bag for when i'm chilly
And a pen and paper combo with a Swedish dictionary
A moldy chicken sammich with a cockroach in the wrapper
But at least I have a friend who I can talk to while I'm out here

I don't even care man I'm living light
It's just less things to dispose of when I'm out of sight
I'll be happy if I never throw away my role
As an eager beaver bum with just his thumb to hold
I don't even care man I'm having fun
It's a short time until we're all old and done
By then I'll be happy if I didn't spend
All my days counting backwards till my shameless end

One of these days I'll be in a tent
Before it gets repossessed by the government
But that won't even phase me when the cities dead
I'll just walk on south and let the weather be my friend

One of these days I'll be in the street
Be that crazy lunatic that no one wants to meet
It's unhealthy it's unkind, It's a shitty mood
But at least I won't get fat when I can't afford food

It's usually sad when someone can't afford
Some basic necessities like bottled up sperm
Well I feel a little bit differently
It's needless to say

I don't even care man I'm living light
It's just less things to dispose of when I'm out of sight
I'll be happy if I never throw away my role
As an eager beaver bum with just his thumb to hold
I don't even care man I'm having fun
It's a short time until we're all old and done
By then I'll be happy if I didn't spend
All my days counting backwards till my shameless end

Yayyayayayy
