Noah Floersch - My Name is Winston lyrics
[Noah Floersch - My Name is Winston lyrics]
My name is Winston and I am in grade three
I hate my math class
But I'm kinda likin' history
And I know that Hannah Fitzenburger
Has a crush on me
But I'll be damned before I catch cooties
My name is Winston and I'm seventeen
I hate my locker but I love
The JV soccer team and I know that I have a
Future somewhere waitin' up for me
Just wait 'til I get my degree
My name is Winston and I'm twenty-three
I hate my job and I hate this dumb economy
And I know that I'd be better
Off in some other country
Just wait 'til I make enough money
My name is Winston and I'm twenty-five
Still hate my job but I
Love my newly wedded wife
And I know that she loves me and
That we'll have a lovely life
I fell in love with her eyes
My name is Winston and I'm thirty-six
I've been promoted and I've
Got a couple kids
And I know that they have a future
Somewhere based on what they've been
I just hope for now that they fit in
My name is Winston and I'm forty-four
I think I work too much
My wife filed for a divorce
And I feel my whole life has
Gone completely off it's course
I need a drink, my throat is sore
My name is Winston and I'm fifty-two
She left six years ago and I still
Don't know what all to do
And my kids want me to date again
But I'm soakin' up the booze
What the hell else I got to lose?
My name is Winston and I'm sixty-eight
Been sober seven years all thanks to my AA
But my health is slippin' slowly
And I'm constantly in pain
Just gotta take it day by day
My name is Winston and my
Heart is getting worse
It'll probably kill me if the doctors
Don't get to me first
And I wish that I could travel
Oh there's freedom that I thirst
I miss my kids so much it hurts
My name is Winston and I'm about to die
Thank you for listening but
Please heed my advice
Don't live your life like I did
Oh there's only so much time
Stop wishin', start doin', goodbye
I hate my math class
But I'm kinda likin' history
And I know that Hannah Fitzenburger
Has a crush on me
But I'll be damned before I catch cooties
My name is Winston and I'm seventeen
I hate my locker but I love
The JV soccer team and I know that I have a
Future somewhere waitin' up for me
Just wait 'til I get my degree
My name is Winston and I'm twenty-three
I hate my job and I hate this dumb economy
And I know that I'd be better
Off in some other country
Just wait 'til I make enough money
My name is Winston and I'm twenty-five
Still hate my job but I
Love my newly wedded wife
And I know that she loves me and
That we'll have a lovely life
I fell in love with her eyes
My name is Winston and I'm thirty-six
I've been promoted and I've
Got a couple kids
And I know that they have a future
Somewhere based on what they've been
I just hope for now that they fit in
My name is Winston and I'm forty-four
I think I work too much
My wife filed for a divorce
And I feel my whole life has
Gone completely off it's course
I need a drink, my throat is sore
My name is Winston and I'm fifty-two
She left six years ago and I still
Don't know what all to do
And my kids want me to date again
But I'm soakin' up the booze
