Green Day parody lyrics
Upright
For use with Uptight
(What does the markup on these lyrics mean?)
I wound up on the wrong side of the war.
Made, made my way to whom I adored.
Broke my engagement and myself.
Perfect picture of bad health, now-there are barnacles on my belt.
The supernatural just ain’t what it used to be.
I got a new start from a death I caused
Me because of what I had lost.
They will pay me off with debts of their-souls
Am-the picture of bad health, now-there are barnacles on my belt.
A future when I should-be doomed.
Upright as a crab with one leg.
I tried suicide and still
I am upright, all right.
I am sunk in the ocean.
