nothing to do but nothing

I got nothing to do but nothing
and that's okay
that's the way to live your life
in the USA
my past is written on my heart
and my resume
and work won't earn me
half my weekly pay

where I am
don't mean shit to me
'cause I can never get rid
of my misspent history
there's nothing but mistakes
far as the eye can see
I try to laugh,
but it's just a tragedy
