Uptight Lyrics

Artist: Green Day
Album: Nimrod

I woke up on the wrong side of the floor.
Made, made my way through the front door.
Broke my engagement with myself.
Perfect picture of bad health, another notch scratched on my belt.
The future just ain't what it used to be.
I got a new start on a dead end road.
Peaked, peaked out on reaching new lows.
Owe, I paid off all my debts to myself.
Perfect picture of bad health, another notch scratched on my belt.
The future's in my living room.
Uptight, I'm a nag with a gun.
All night, suicide's last call.
I've been uptight all night.
I'm a son of a gun.
Uptight I'm a nag with a gun.

...have either of you ever heard of spellcheck?

This is a very good song. It's too bad that the album jacket doesn't give the full lyrics.

Seems Belgaer is a bit of a snob.

My spellchecker also says I spelt his name wrong.

Last ride in has the best lyrics on this album anyway.
