"Now Is All We Got" lyrics

I'm just a babysitter at night
I put the book down and turn off the light
I'll probably have another breakdown
Mattress on the top of my car

And there's a junkie in my mom's life
Celebrating beating a death wish one more time
I gotta get out of my high school
Actress in a killed off part

What can I do?
What can I do?
Now is all we got
Now is all we know
Now is somewhere we've been to
It's somewhere we can go

I'm gonna have to get a straight job
Closing up the shop, but I can't turn my dreams off
Singing along out on the highway
Cigarette spitting out sparks

It doesn't snow in California
I packed my suitcase, but I forgot my camera
Stranger said to take a brochure
Tell me, what's your light in the dark?

What can I do?
What can I do?
What can I do?
What can I do?
Now is all we got
Now is all we know
Now is somewhere we've been to
It's somewhere we can go

Now is all we got
Now is all we know
Now is somewhere we've been to
It's somewhere we can go

Tell me, what's your light in the dark?
Now is all we got
Now is all we know
Now is somewhere we've been to
It's somewhere we can go

Now is all we got
Now is all we know
Now is somewhere we've been to
It's somewhere we can go

What can I do?
What can I do?
