Rock Hard Times Lyrics - Shootenanny - Eels

They told me that I couldn't come back here again 

Took me for some kind of fool 

Said I was doing things that never should be done 

But I don't care about their rules 

As if I cared 'bout the little minds 

In the little heads of the herd 

There's nothing you could dream 

Would be more absurd 

And everybody knows 

These are rock hard times 

I gotta make it through 

These are rock hard times 

I don't know what it is they're trying to do to me 

Make me into some sick joke 

But no one's laughing and least of all not me 

It's hard to laugh as you choke

Hollywood lies piled up to the sky 

Floating your way soon 

Hope you like the rotten stench of doom 

And everybody knows 

These are rock hard times 

I gotta make it through 

These are rock hard times 

And everybody knows 

These are rock hard times 

I gotta make it through 

These are rock hard times 

I don't know what it is they think I'm gonna try 

They don't know what they need to fear 

The surest sign that the end is coming soon 

Is right there in the bathroom mirror

Everybody knows 

These are rock hard times 

I gotta make it through 

These are rock hard times
