lyrics

I thought I'd get rich selling stocks and bonds
It was the internet, the great long con
Where the road up goes up forever
And the party never ends

I didn't know whether the hustle
Or whether to hide
And we went broke
My baby cried
and I said
just who in the hell do you think that I am
So don't ask me, where I'm going
I ain't been there so I don't know
All that 's ending is me pretending
That I am someone that I don't know

Things hit bottom in March of 09
People were pointing fingers instead catching crime
Like throwing all them basterds that did this all into jail
Me I sold insurance to pay the bills
The 9-5 grind you know the one that kills
Where just getting by, feels just like hell
So don't ask me, where I'm going
I ain't been there so I don't know
All that 's ending is me pretending
That I am someone that I don't know

The stock market got better
but the people stayed poor
except for those
They got a little more
And the politicians they paid to get there
All acted like kids
Me I gave it up
Yeah I grabbed my guitar
I was hoping I could make it or at least get far
enough away from who I was and all that I did
So don't ask me, where I'm going
I ain't been there so I don't know
All that 's ending is me pretending
That I am someone that I don't know
No, I ain't someone that I don't know
