Verse 1
Bb
Ab
Every morning he got up
Dreading each moment
he had to be awake
The clock would tick and
time would slow
There wasn't anywhere he wouldn't go
To avoid having to see
anyone
He'd sit in a chair and lean against a wall
But late at night he had a savior

"Poor you, poor you

Is not that old
It's not that funny, it's not that great

But I know it to be true

As I lay on her lap
And she says, "poor you, poor you
