[verse]
well this guy walks up to the stage
“why ain’t you famous yet?”
well i just smile and i thank him
i’m glad you like the set

but he pushes the question
says he wants to invest
in a singer that
[?]

i just laugh it all off
“hey, put a tip in my jar”
and he says, “yeah, but honestly
you could go far”

so tell me, then, how come
you ain’t the one son
that i’ve seen rise up the charts?

[pre*chorus]
so i put down my stuff
and take a slow breath
hey, listen fella
don’t know what to tell ya
except…
[chorus]
there’ve been ten f*cking assh0l*s
who told me they’d make me a star
nine rat b*st*rds
that’ve mugged me outside of this bar
eight more lines
to tell you this good life gets hard

there was seven soaked summers
when i couldn’t get off the floor
six deep heartaches
that just left me askin’ for more
five times this week
that i’ve heard that question before

there were four homeless seasons
i only knew passion of pain
then three years
i mixed up the two for the same
those two concerts
where i nearly died on the stage

but to answer your question
or you don’t know my name
the very first reason
to let my refrain
is i thought that someone would
find me and take me away
[post*chorus]
i thought that i’d get discovered
but it’s me
it’s me who will make my own name

[verse]
well that sounds messed up
this life that you choose
said, “i just think of freddie”
he said, “i never lose”
so i’m gonna get there
even if broken and bruised

[pre*chorus]
’cause i might be late
and it may get hard
but it’s not rotten
to see how i’ve gotten this far
in spite of those

[chorus]
ten f*cking assh0l*s
who told me they’d make me a star
nine rat b*st*rds
that’ve mugged me outside of this bar
eight more lines
to tell you this good life gets hard
there was seven soaked summers
when i couldn’t get off the floor
six deep heartaches
that just left me askin’ for more
five times this week
that i’ve heard that question before

there were four homeless seasons
i only knew passion of pain
then three years
i mixed up the two for the same
those two concerts
where i nearly died on the stage

but to answer your question
or you don’t know my name
the very first reason
to let my refrain
is i thought that someone would
find me and take me away

[post*chorus]
yeah, i thought that i’d get discovered
but it’s me
it’s me who will make my own name
