Down In a Pinch Lyrics



Monday morning and the sun is up - I'm still snoozin'

in bed.

I stayed out a little late last night and the party

still feels like it's in my head.

Oh shit, I'm late again and I rush to the door.

Boss man calls me on the phone says "You don't work

here no more."

He gets me down in a pinch - He won't budge, not even

an inch

And you know that grip is tight - I hold on for all my

might.

And I can't seem to get my way no matter what I do or

say.

I get down in a pinch, I get down in a pinch

2 cigarettes and a cup of coffee and I'm still stoned

as hell.

A pill for this, and a pill for that, but I'm never

really feeling well.

I can't ever forget that day that you finally changed

your mind.

And left me standing on the side of the road in the

rain without a cell phone or a dime.

Yeah, you left me down in a pinch. You wouldn't budge,

not even an inch.

And I know that grip was tight - I kept holding on for

all my might.

But I never gave you your way - I guess that why you

couldn't stay

Down in a pinch oh no....

And when you get down in a pinch even the smiles keeps

you feeling blue

You can't get down on yourself and cry all day

Cuz life is cheap and easy if that's how you play it

through

But you don't wanna get high in the sky and fly away

Yeah, when I get down in a pinch - I won't budge I

won't even flinch

And even though that grip gets tight - I keep holding

on with all my might

Because if I have a say - I'm finally going to get my

way down in a pinch oh....
