Lyrics
My job?s a world away.
Cuase my boss has been mean today
I?m feelin down and out
Cuase things are swirlin around
You say that you got issues
Why won?t you let me help you
You say you want a friend
Why won?t you let me in
They make me stay in my house in the clouds,
so when the fog starts to surround,
I yell and play my guitar real loud.
And sing, the east bay has the sun,
and I hate havin to come,
home when the Berkeley girls are still havin fun.
Your pictures in black and white now
What once was color has faded with time
It?s been faded and tarnished and bruised somehow
You memory has become a simple rhyme
I should be playin in the California sun
But it?s been cold for months
You think got me cold and growin old
But I?m still looking up.
My house cost a fortune
But I can?t afford it
I?m a renter or half of one
Can?t afford a telephone
You got say that you?ve got issues
But all I know is that I miss you.
Too bad you?ve decided,
You?re bored with me.
I?m movin on with in time
Despite my grieving mind
The pain inside will subside
Faded/Jaded photos are just a part of life
