I was born this way, on a cloudy day. I got curmudgeon in my blood. The rest is made of mud. I'm a real desert rat. I ain't never goin' back. 'cause happiness just ain't for me. As I grow old the days turn to mold, but I'm gettin' tired and I'm uninspired. I'm a real desert rat. I ain't never goin' back. 'cause happiness just ain't for me. She's drippin' on the door; it needs a paint of coat more. The Big Head above, It feels no love. I'm a real desert rat. I ain't never goin' back. 'cause happiness just ain't for me. Happiness just ain't for me.
