about

Hey Johnny Cash this is how ya do iiiiit!

lyrics

I got a dime for my loose tooth
I drank fine wine and tried vermouth
I filled my sails and I emptied my brain
I guess you'd probably call that insane

She told me that she loved me
And I guess I must have told her the same

But I spent my dime on time in a phone booth
I told a little white lie about trying vermouth
Like a caboose, I'm used to danglin' behind a train
You never see my face, but hey, you know my name!

Well I may be last but I'm movin' fast
Toward greener pastures, fortune and fame

And like a kid in school with glitter and glue,
I'll make something great
... yeah just you wait

Well you can bet your boots and even your tennis shoes
I thought we'd stick like glitter and glue
So this ain't just a song about being used
Yeah it's a song about using too

Oh what's the use of all this pretty paste,
Paper plates and macaroni dipped in paint?
Oh what the hell did we think we could make?
I guess this is a song about mistakes...

Well, she don't care about me
and I don't care about her -- it's a shame!

Oh she don't care about me
and I don't care about her -- what a waste

Oh she don't care about me
and I don't care about her.... ok.
