I'm the kind of guy who stays up half the night
Eating greasy things and reading Stephen King
And I'm happy to be up here in my room.
My mother says I'm shy, for a man of thirty five
Says I should find a girl but it might upset my world
Cause I'm happy to be up here in my room.
There was a time I used to dream
Of stardom on the Silver Screen.
I could see the cameras flash
My picture in the Tabloid trash.
But then I'd have to take a bath.
You know what's real obscene, is pizza turning green.
But it's kind of nice, there's some color in my life
And I'm happy to be up here in my room.
I haven't been to work since that day I went berserk.
They said they understood that a rest would do me good.
Now I'm happy to be up here in my room.
There was a time I used to dream
Of stardom on the Silver Screen.
I could see the cameras flash
My picture in the Tabloid trash.
Boy that pizza gave me gas.
My mother's getting bent, cause I'm late again with rent.
She's always at my door, getting harder to ignore.
Still I'm happy to be up here in my room.
But I think I'll have to move.....The body soon.
