“Same Problems”
By: Steve Everett & Matt Stell
Verse 1
Overslept my lake checkout
Tally up the body count
I’m trying not to be too loud
Cause the maid’s been knocking for a while now
Pre-Chorus
I guess I should know what trouble looks like by now
But here I am again somehow
Chorus
Back to the same old problems
I thought I solved ‘em
Fell so far I broke through the bottom
Wound up back at square one
Losing a battle that I thought I had won
Same problems all know my name
They keep calling everyday
I keep trying to push them away
But I’m just resolving the same problems
Verse 2
Tracking down my credit card
Found it at that second bar
Went a couple drinks too far
I’m feelin’ maxed out, hungover, and over-charged
Bridge
Professional children this is our song
La da da La da da
It might seem fun but it won’t last long
