"Sometimes i get tired" lyrics

sometimes i get tired
thinking about all the things
that i don't want to do
and there are so many things 
that i don't want to do...

but this is a world
and this is our world
you can't help but do something
you can't help but be someone

still i get tired
thinking about all the the things
i don't want to do 
and there are so many things
that i don't want to do

like go to India
or to get my teeth cleaned
or save the whales (or don't save the waves)
and all that shit that i don't understand
i don't understand it

relax the bartender tells me 
he says have a drink don't think about it
and that's the only way that i've found
just don't think about it
and it might be alright
