Thirsty Merc - I Wish Somebody Would Build A Bridge (So I Can Get lyrics

Your rating:

Munching on a ham and cheese sando in the morning on Friday

Cruising down the Pacific Highway

Thinking 'bout the day ahead



I paid the rent cheque, got my registration and phone bill

If those two don't overthrow me the dogs will

But heck at least I know the taste of bread



Why do I seem to spend my whole damn life chasing paper?

I'm like an actor turned singer turned waiter

I'll wait around until I meet with my maker

Then I'll sign up for AA or something



I just wish there was some other way to get myself somewhere

This little strip of earth and all that I've done there

I'm like a bull-ant on the leg of a sunchair

Under a magnifying glass



I wish somebody would build a bridge

So I could get over myself

On my own I'm wasting my time



I take a phonecall on the mobile while I'm checking the meter

One sec I need to turn up that little speaker

It's getting noisy in this little town



We're like America we love to make a ho-har out of jackshit

I never ever really seemed to fit

But now I'm stuck so deep in all of this



Come to think of it I might as well be travelling backwards

It's been an hour and I'm only in Chatswood

I hate the way that I'm becoming a product

Go pick me up for $24.95



I'm on sale and it's retail in the world of deception

You can treat a man if he can't get erections

Is there a pill for my lack of direction?

Thanks mate, I'll have a pack of those



I wish somebody would build a bridge

So I could get over myself

On my own I'm wasting my time

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So I could get over myself

On my own I'm losing my mind



It's all good I got a broom and a cheap persian rug now

I can sweep the whole thing outta my sight now

Outta sight, outta mind



I'll keep on going until I'm pushing 30 or 40

And as long as I don't do something naughty

I love my wife, what a life



She comes home to find me spread on the floor from blood poisoning

I popped a whole lot of pills and I'm shaking

And there's a needle sticking out of my arm, I ain't faking I'm zoning in and zoning out



You wanna help me, don't call me an ambulance honey

Just get a silver service cab this is funny

Just one passenger please, going up my own ass

You take credit card? Fuck this!



I wish somebody would build a bridge

So I could get over myself

On my own I'm wasting my time

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So I could get over myself

On my own I'm losing my mind



I wish somebody would build a bridge

So I could get over myself

On my own I'm wasting my time

I'm wasting my life

I wish somebody would build a bridge

So I could get over myself

On my own I'm losing my mind
