Met a man who said he's got a villa down in Africa I asked him what he's doing here, the weather sucks, what's wrong with ya? He said he's got a gun, and that he's on the run He used to have a life but it went wrong Girlfriend's in a coma He's promised to look after her He's written to her favourite bands He's hoping for Metallica It all looks pretty grim He wishes it were him He used to have a life but it went wrong And he said Hey, what you living for? Hey, what you looking for? I'm not gonna take it any more Is anybody there? Is anybody out? Is anybody up? Is anybody down? I don't think I can take it any more I don't think I can take it any more She's cruising in her wheelchair She's dressed up like [a mexican] She's holding up the traffic and there's gonna be an accident I bet she lives alone Is anybody home? She used to have a life but it went wrong And she says Hey, what you living for? Hey, what you learning for? I'm not gonna take it any more Is anybody there? Is anybody out? Is anybody up? Is anybody down? I don't think I can take it any more I don't think I can take it any more Hey, what you living for? Hey, what you looking for? I'm not gonna take it any more Is anybody there? Is anybody out? Is anybody up? Is anybody down? I don't think I can take it any more I don't think I can take it any more
