The Fauxhawks - Can't Complain

from Various Artists​-​meh. by Eric Blowtorch

/

lyrics

They buried me under the viaduct
under piles and piles of post-product
‘least I didn’t get wet from the rain
No little blips botherin’ my brain - I can’t complain

I don’t work at the post office
No blood gushing outta my faucets
Not worth taxing my collapsing capital gain
Years and years down the drain - I can’t complain

Can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t complain
Well, I could but complaining’s always in vain
Why rant and rave? Better to silently slave
You pant, curse your lot, but you can’t, you cannot complain

It is what it is and it’s all good
and I’m good! I’m good! Is that understood?
I’m so over it, wouldn’t care if Apocalypse came
Praying for more of the same, I can’t complain

Martin Luther King just loved to complain
Jesus had such hassles healing the lame
Same goes for that poor lady off in Iran
They complained and complained - what was gained?
You can’t complain

Can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t complain
Hooray! Hooray! Same shit, different day!
Hoot! Holler! Stoop and scrape, another dollar!
