Participation Trophies Lyrics

[00:05.28] Yeah, I lost my keys three times this week
[00:08.13] If I'm late again, I'll get fired (ah)
[00:11.93] My car battery is dead
[00:14.28] Guess I'll go back to bed
[00:16.16] I got bills I didn't pay again
[00:17.92] Now my immediate action is required (ah)
[00:22.77] Credit score 315 (ah)
[00:25.02] I don't know what that even means
[00:27.66] Participation trophies
[00:30.30] They messed me up, now I'm that guy
[00:34.57] I'm barely staying alive
[00:38.53] Got all of these neuroses
[00:41.36] But people say that I'm a vibe
[00:45.26] So what's the problem if I suck at life?
[00:50.61] (I don't always suck that bad, do I?)
[00:53.99] Now 3 a.m., I'm playing words with friends
[00:56.43] I go to bed, but I'm way too wired (ahh)
[01:00.32] Start a new job tomorrow
[01:02.87] Oh, wait! It's already tomorrow
[01:05.12] Wash my sheets first time in six weeks
[01:07.53] Found my AirPods in the dryer (ahh)
[01:11.14] Something is wrong with me (ahh)
[01:13.53] Guess I'm just too Type B
[01:16.30] So overstimulated
[01:18.89] Now my attention span is shot
[01:23.09] And I don't know how to stop
[01:27.06] Routine is overrated
[01:29.66] I do what I want when I like
[01:33.63] So what's the problem if I suck at life?
[01:38.95]
[01:43.14] My mom tried to be my friend, I never learned discipline
[01:48.44] Got good at playing pretend, I swear that it's not my fault
[01:53.92] I wish that I could rewind, wish I had another try
[01:59.27] To finally raise myself right, I swear that it's not my fault
[02:04.88] Got all this wasted potential, mommy said I was special
[02:10.30] My crisis existential, no, it's not my fault
[02:15.64] Now I depend on these meds to calm the thoughts in my head
[02:20.90] This is as sane as I get, oh no, it's not my fault
[02:26.67] Why do I su-
[02:29.36] Why do I su-
[02:31.97] Why do I su-
[02:37.18] Why do I su-
[02:39.94] Why do I su-
[02:42.50] Why do I su-
[02:47.83] Participation trophies
[02:50.60] They messed me up now I'm that guy
[02:54.52] I'm barely staying alive (staying alive)
[02:58.63] Got all of these neuroses
[03:01.34] But people say that I'm a vibe
[03:05.34] So what's the problem if I suck at life?
[03:12.91] (Nah, I don't like my ending, it was too musical theory)
[03:15.96]
