Incompetence Indifference

They had a courtyard pool at the hotel Delight

I decided to sun myself

there was no-one in sight

just a small patch of sunlight left out there

that's where I placed my chair

Then a woman came out

and she placed her chair right smack in front of me

so close I coulda touched her hair

she had her back to me

I thought, "Man, This is weird, she pretending I'm not

here."

Then she lit up a cigarette and the secondary smoke

poured over her shoulders

and right down my throat

But she didn't notice, she didn't even care

she had stolen my sunshine and cut of my air!

What kind of person would do you like that?

What kind of person would do you like that?

What kind of person would do you like that?

It's a mean old world when you have to live with

incompetence and indifference

like a bad cup of coffee that's filled to the brim with

incompetence and indifference, Yeah!

Smile for me one time

Smile when you really wanna cry

try for me one time, even though I know it's a lie

The electrician came by to fix my wires

and told me straight away I'd be charged by the hour

and spent the whole day just pokin around, lookin for

the ground

When he did start in, he rewired this and did that, and

probably took a nap

because a week went by before he said "it's fixed" and

he left with my check

now the microwave turns on the big screen tv which cuts

off the bathroom light, intermittently, and I'd love to

take a shower - I'm afraid to try - I'm afraid I'll -

So I thought I'd try a second electrician only this

time I'd look under crook

well what really got my goat was when I picked up the
