[Intro]
It's a dirty job but someone's got to do it[x4]

[Verse 1]
Yeah, all I ever heard as a kid was I'm born to lose
All I ever wanted was a shot at breaking the rules
I want to make a lot of money but I don't want to go to school
I don't want to get a real job, I don't want to be you

[Chorus]
I'd rather be dead, yeah I'd rather be dead
I'd rather be face down in the dirt with a bullet in my head

[Verse 2]
Well, I ran away and pawned my soul for a switchblade knife
I met a man from Mars and a couple other freaks that night
I want to take on the world, I want to bang a million girls
I don't want to wear a three piece suit, I don't want to be you

[Chorus[x2]

[Bridge]
I want to make a lot of money but I don't want to go to school
I don't want to get a real job, I don't want to be you

[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'd rather be dead, I'd rather be dead
Yeah, I'd rather be dead, yeah I'd rather be dead
I'd rather be face down in the dirt with a bullet in my head

[Chorus]
I'd rather be dead, yeah I'd rather be dead
I'd rather be face down in the dirt with a bullet in my head
With a bullet in my head
