Camper Van Beethoven - Down and Out Lyrics

Send "Down and Out" Ringtone to your Cell

Songwriters: Jose Feliciano

Gonna move to the city
(Down and out)
Gonna read a lot of William Burroughs
(Down and out)
Gonna practice being depressed
(Down and out)

And I think I'll go to film school
(Down and out)
Live in a scummy part of town
(Down and out)
All my friends will think that they're junkies
(Down and out)

And I don't know what it is I want
But I can get it from my old man
And I don't know what it is I need
But I can get it

Gonna move to the city
(Down and out)
I'll join a rock and roll band
(Down and out)
Gonna dress and act like Lou Reed
(Down and out)

And I think I'll go to film school
(Down and out)
Live in a scummy part of town
(Down and out)
Read a lot of William Burroughs and be depressed
(Down and out)

And I don't know what it is I want
But I can get it from my old man
And I don't know what it is I need
But I can get it

I'm acting
(Down and out)
(Down and out)
(Down and out)
