Still Workin' at the Bike Store

I am a rock star, by the way. Seriously. Just because I am not in a real band, don't have any albums on the charts or even in existence, am unknown, and totally broke, I am still a bonafide rocker. I wrote this tune as therapy and play it "whenever I'm feeling down." I have a live recording of this song, played with my side project Mamband, but there is no way I'd ever let anyone hear it, because I am lousy at guitar and even worse at singing, but I am nonetheless a rock star goddammit. Here are the lyrics:

Whenever I’m feeling down
My heart falls to the ground
And I know one thing for certain
I’m not too good at hurtin’

I still remained perplexed
About what to do next
But I know one thing for sure
Still workin’ at the Bike Store

Well at least I can proudly say
That I’ve lived every day
As if it were my last
And I’m having a blast

‘Bout my troubles I can say
Left alone they’ll go away
But one thing I can’t ignore
Still workin’ at the Bike Store

All the grown up things I should do
Like save a dollar or two
Are currently on hold
And I’m getting old

Maybe this will be the year
I’ll pursue a new career
But until I open that door
Still workin’ at the Bike Store

Got a smile and an English degree
Not much else going for me
Drive around in a beat up car
They know my name at the bar

People say you can do anything
Put your mind to it, just take a swing
But until I go on tour
Still workin’ at the Bike Store

You don't need a stage in front of 10,000 screaming fans or even a decent rehearsal space to be a rock star. It's all in your heart, dude. As you can see, the basement of the shop provides a cool, industrial type setting, and we can be as loud as we like.
