Slacker - Umphrey's McGee

I had always tried to do the right thing but

In the end my results were just a little split off center from the most

Though the same was offered to everybody else I mean

What could you blame me for?

Truth is I was just being representative of the

Midwest

Though I always manage to show up just a little late

So what if I always managed to show up just a little late

In the end no matter how hard I tried I never seemed to make my ride on time

It’s all too hard it seems and maybe just a little too much

But in the end I must confess that I have yet to ever offer my best

Well I met my challenge ya know, it fits your stereotype

There’s a little more that I could mention, it’s got something to do with my

best intentions

And I’ve always done everything that’s been asked of me

Never questioned if it was right.

I was simply going along with some fucked up

kind of life

Until I met my challenge, that’s when you labeled me, ya know

I never thought about the implications of all your words unto my dedications

So this slacker fumbles through another day but

In the end it all depends on whether or not you’re workin for another man’s ends

I had always tried to do the right thing but

In the end my results were just a little split off center from the most

Though the same was offered to everybody else I mean

What could you blame me for?

Truth is I was just being representative of myself

Though I always manage to show up just a little late

So what if I always managed to show up just a little late

In the end no matter how hard I tried I never seemed to make my ride on time

It’s all too hard it seems and maybe just a little too much

But in the end I must confess that you have yet to ever witness our best
