lyrics

THE LOSER'S SONG
by Troy R. Bennett and Walt Whitman

You say you’re sucking your lunch through a tube in your gut
And you’re breathing through a hole in your neck
You say your baby daddy he just up and skedaddled
And now you’re waiting on a welfare check

You say your legs don’t work and you’re stuck in a chair
And your hands are all twisted with pain
You just lost your gig because your boss is a pig
And now your is head is hanging down in shame

Hey they say a loser, yeah baby a loser
They say you’re a loser, hey but that’s OK
Everybody ‘round here is a loser anyway

You say you’re just off the boat from some other place
And your English well it ain’t so hot
No matter what you try to do, your plans are falling through
And everybody’s got more than you got

You say you’re old and alone and you’re always afraid
And your landlord wants to kick you out
There’s too many bills and you’re hooked on the pills
And your mind has got you crippled with doubt

You say you’re feeling like a rat just a runin’ a race
And you’re tired of keeping up with the fight
You gave it your best and stood up for the test
But nothing ever turned out right

This song is for you and you know that it’s true
You’re a hero even when you fall
‘Cause the distance is thin between a lose and a win
And there’s really no difference at all

The F-Bombs Portland, Maine

Dropped screaming from the belly of a smoking and wounded war bird. Landing with a crash on a confused, desolate land of rumor, isolation and willful ignorance. Born and raised in a locked down pandemic.
