My head's on the block with the company Nothing I can do 'bout that I tried to be good, did the best that I could Guess I wasn't that hot My car was making a funny sound But it's not funny at all Looked under the hood but don't look good Maybe time for recall The car won't start, got bills to pay Got no money, the cat's gone astray No time to get back home before it starts to rain But who's complaining? The world's on its side, said the man And he wasn't complaining Just pointing it out like a good boy scout No judge and no jury could blame him I'm watching it all on a TV screen With a beer and a snack Famines and wars and an ozone with flaws Well, I can't do much about that The car won't start, I missed the train The rent's been doubled, the cat's gone again Every day as my mother would say The world has gone insane But who's complaining? Not me The car won't start, got bills to pay Got no money, the cat's gone astray The car won't start, I missed the train The rent's been doubled, the cat's gone again The car won't start
