lyrics

I'm the janitor
I'm here to clean the floors
ill make it clean till my back is sore
I could of been
elected president
but opportunity had come and went
so i spend my days inside my mind so devious and out of line
with society and the four food groups the dating scene not in the loop
no eye contact given to me no friendly rides offered to me I'm just someone you don't know no one knows where i have to go
so don't offer me the extra earl grey tea don't make it complicated
the elevator, you could of waited...
no one comes when i get sick
my birthdays here but there are no gifts
my girlfriend we never fight
i watch her from the window light
my telescope has become my eyes my window shade is my disguise
i watch you take off your shirt i watch you take off your skirt
please don't call security your secrets all but safe with me
I'm not a tom dick or harry
look at me I'm not so scary..
