Lyrics


Rejected again I'm feeling so low
My girl told me I'm free to go
My sunshiny world pulled a snow job on me
Now I'm drowning in my misery, in my misery

I can't read I can't write, it all seems so trite
But I'm too tired to turn out the light
I sleep and I eat, then I go back to sleep
I'm a vegetable down to my feet, I said it's complete

Still I need to Play On My Violin
I'm feeling so masochistic
She won't come and Play On My Violin
Why is she so sadistic?

It looks like the show is over at last
And I played the Christian today
All the Romans went home while the lions ate my bones
The royalty watched and enjoyed, they all enjoyed

(chorus)

The deck has been dealt, I got lost in the shuffle
The cards have been cut with a knife
Still I don't think the world really owes me a living
I just think it owes me a life, it owes me a life

(chorus)
