Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It meant a lot to me then, it matters less to me now
And any pleasure derived
Was knowing that they'd never feel as good
As a badge pinned on a thrift store coat
That smelled of sauerkraut and cloves
[Verse 2]
An angry customers face
Confused 'cause they didn't get their way
Is something they would never allow
But they have to allow
Because this pitiful exchange will be the sole high point of our day
[Verse 3]
I guess I'll keep on chuckling
Till there's no more breath in my lungs
And it really doesn't matter at all
Uh-huh
[Verse 4]
War, and rumors of war
Clouds of poison in the sky and poison in the soil
Oh, Lord, how I wish there was a better ending to this joke
[Verse 5]
It meant a lot to me then, it matters less to me now
All calls are answered
It's no bother, I just wanted to talk
To a direct marketer from Bangalore, or was it Mahabalipuram?
[Verse 6]
He tried to sell me on a credit card
I asked about the weather and whether his life was hard
You say your name is Lazio
I don't think that is true
Because, yar, I know a Lazio
And he doesn't sound half as smart as you
[Verse 7]
I guess I'll keep on chuckling
'Til there's no more breath in my lungs
And it really doesn't matter at all
Uh-huh
[Verse 8]
War, and rumors of war
Clouds of poison in the sky and poison in the soil
Oh, Lord, how I wish there was a better ending to this joke
[Verse 9]
War, and rumors of war
Clouds of poison in the sky and poison in the soil
Oh, Lord, how I wish there was a better ending to this joke
