Nickel For Goodbye

I almost went to your house Heard something about A way to forget about things But the newspaper said There's bad weather ahead So I kept on staying in bed And it broke the day Yeah, it sure broke the day And the neon commercials They were screaming insane "You should get up, 'cause you got shit to do" Meanwhile people all dress up and do what they do It doesn't mean that I have to Just give me a nickel for "I'm sorry" And a nickel for me pride Give me a nickel for the things I've done wrong in my life Give me a nickel for friendship And a nickel for the fights Give me a nickel for "hello" Give me a nickel for "goodbye"
Some fools remember all that they say And forget about all that they hear Well, I don't wanna be that fool that goes blind through the day I wanna hear what I need to hear Just don't break my heart Just don't break my heart And good friends remember good times that they got And buried the bad ones for later A few words of wisdom I gladly forgot 'Cause mistakes I've been making for ages But they don't give a nickel for "I'm sorry " And no nickel for who's right No nickel for the things I've done wrong in my life No nickel for friendship And two shits about a fight No nickel for "hello" Only a nickel for "goodbye" Just a nickel for "goodbye" And the drink, it was fading, it felt so frustrating So I went to your house Though they warned me, they said there was trouble ahead Still I went to that house
[Chorus] Just to get a nickel for "I'm sorry" And a nickel for my pride A nickel for the things I've done wrong in my life To get a nickel for friendship And a nickel for the fights To get a nickel for "hello" Maybe a nickel for "goodbye" Give me a nickel for "goodbye" Good, goodbye
