"Thankful For Your Service" lyrics

"Thankful For Your Service"

At the bottom of the kitchen trash I found the empty container of
Take out food with my name clearly written on it
Following a trail of footsteps from the standing water in the bathroom
I discovered my soaking wet bedroom slippers in the hallway

Maybe I've been spoiled by a life of solitude
Maybe there's some other way I can express my gratitude
But the presence of so many friendly strangers makes me nervous
And it doesn't mean that I'm not truly thankful for your service

Lately I've been spending more and more of my free time hanging out in the
Empty back room of the diner just up the highway
And it's just to give you elbow room that I've been making use of the
Sleeping bag that I keep rolled up and stashed behind my couch

Do you think that I think I'm somehow better than you
Please accept my word that nothing could be further from the truth
But the presence of so many friendly strangers makes me nervous
And it doesn't mean that I'm not truly thankful for your service
