Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's not much in the pocket
There hasn't been much all week
There's not a lot comin' in
And there probably won't be
They've sucked up all me profits
When the Dow went down
And now I'm in the brown
[Verse 2]
Holdin' onto what shoulda been
Gotta swallow this pill
Probably done enough of that
I'm like a whale on the krill
It's why I'm here in the first place
'Cause I got too lit
And now I'm in the shit
[Chorus]
Couldn't afford the rent at Mum's
And now I'm out on the street
The compo claim's all gone to shit
The doctor said I'm sweet
Mum's boyfriend threw out my guitar
The only thing I loved
And now I'm living out of my car
[Verse 3]
Got a lot of what could have been
I've not got a lot of what will
The schooner glass is half empty
It's gone warm worse still
The barman's gone apeshit
He doesn't understand my pain
And I'm pissing it down the drain
[Chorus]
I couldn't afford the rent at Mum's
And now I'm out on the street
The compo claim's all gone to shit
The doctor said I'm sweet
Mum's boyfriend threw out my guitar
The only thing I loved
And now I'm living out of my car
And now I'm living out of my car
[Chorus]
And now I'm livin' out of my
Now I'm livin' out of my Datsun 180B
And now I'm living out of my car
[Chorus]
I couldn't afford the rent at Mum's
And now I'm out on the street
The compo claim's all gone to shit
The doctor said I'm sweet
Mum's boyfriend threw out my guitar
The only thing I loved
And now I'm living out of my car
[Chorus]
And now I'm livin' out of my
Now I'm livin' out of my
Now I'm livin' out of my Datsun 180B
