You Don​’​t Call My Phone When You​’​re In LA

from Bad Idea, After Bad Idea by Luke Pelletier

lyrics

You can keep it up, but don’t slow it down
What happened to the kid that always used to hang around
I heard they broke his legs because he was counting cards
I can’t recognize a single person in this bar

I tried my best, but I still fell short
I fall off the wagon every time I get bored
They say the best revenge is living well
But everywhere I go, it’s just a living hell

You were a lot more fun before that car wreck
And I try to understand because I know you can’t help it
Feel real bad about all you’ve been going through
But everything is different and I know that you know it, dude

I lost my mind about a year ago
I thought the FBI was talking through my telephone
You’re hard to understand when you’re talking fast
You try your best, but you always seem to come in last

The things I couldn’t say, well, they were written on my face
But how’d you ever know when you’re a million miles away
You don’t call my phone when you’re in LA

I ain’t qualified to do almost anything at all because I never finished school
And I could never hold a job
You don’t call my phone when you’re in LA

I used to tune it out, but now it’s keeping pace
There are parts of town where I still can’t show my face
I spent all I had, just getting drunk or stoned
I ain’t got nothing left to sell to the cash for gold

The things I couldn’t say, well, they were written on my face
But how’d you ever know when you’re a million miles away
You don’t call my phone when you’re in LA

I ain’t qualified to do almost anything at all because I never finished school
And I could never hold a job
You don’t call my phone when you’re in LA
