Story Behind The Song

Contemplating all of those who have lost everything in the "economic downturn"

Lyrics

Ain't No Time Like Now

I used to get up every day
go to work and earn my pay
and don't you know I thought I had it made
Then one day when I went in
the boss said don't come back again
& I said to myself, this just ain't my day.

I guess there ain't, ain't no time like now
I've got nothin' left worth losen' anyhow
I guess it's time I do believe
I do believe its time to leave
& I guess there ain't, ain't no time like now

Well yesterday I had so much
now today I'm out of touch
If I live to see tomorrow, knock on wood
But the wife she sits and piss and moans
cause I can't pay the mortgage loan
and tells the kids their daddy's ain't no good

(chorus)
(bridge)

Whiskey bottles on the floor
the neighbor's bangin' on the door
tellin' me to turn my music down
But I'm too drunk to reach the knob
so I yell out go suck my cob
and that's when the police come and bang some more.

(chorus)(chorus)

(repeat last line 3 times)
