  • Do you not hear me anymore
    I know it's not your thing to care
    I know it's cool to be so bored
    I sucks me in
    When you're aloof
    It sucks me in, it sucks it works
    I guess it's cool to be alone

    Will you never rest
    Fighting the battle of who could care less
    Everyday you wake up late
    Sometimes I wish I was
    That way

    And you think Rockford Files is cool
    But there are some things
    That you would change
    If it were up to you
    So think about your masterpiece (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Watch the Rockford Files
    And call to see if Paul can score some weed.

    Do you never rest
    Fighting the battle of who could care less
    Unearned unhappiness
    That's all right I guess

    I've got this great idea
    Why don't we pitch it to the Franklin Fucking Mint
    Fine pewter portraits of
    General apathy and major boredom singing
    Whatever and ever Amen

    Oh well maybe not I'll try again
    This should cheer you up for sure
    See I've got your old I.D.
    And you're all dressed up like the Cure

    You never rest
    Fighting the battle
    Of who could care less
    Unearned unhappiness
    You're my hero I confess Writer/s: BEN FOLDS
