lyrics

roaming round your house wasting your time
no obligation just wasting your time
so why are you alone wasting your time
when you could be with me wasting your time
i'm a waste like you with nothing else to do
may i waste your time too?
warding off regrets wasting your time
smoking cigarettes wasting your time
i'm just a parasite wasting your time
applying myself to wasting your time
