Lowlife
Theory of a Deadman Lyrics

You know I'll be the one who gets fallin' down drunk
I'm the type of person who will get completely drunk and likely embarrass myself.

At my neighbor kid's soccer game
This is the type of behavior I exhibit even when I'm attending an event that's supposed to be family-friendly, such as a local soccer game.

I got an '82 Fierro with a car seat in the middle
I drive an old car that's not in the best condition, and I even have a car seat in the middle, indicating that I'm not afraid to transport children in such a vehicle.

Broken down on the Interstate
Unfortunately, my car doesn't always cooperate with me and has a tendency to break down at inconvenient times, like on the interstate.

I've got a beer-stained t-shirt looking like Joe Dirt
I dress carelessly and often wear clothes that are stained or wrinkled, resembling the character Joe Dirt from the movie of the same name.

Something 'bout me just ain't right
I'm aware that I'm different from others and that there's something off about me.

I'm a cash-stealing, drug-dealing loser without any feeling
I'm unapologetically involved in unethical activities such as stealing money and selling drugs, and I don't have any remorse or guilt about it.

Gettin' trailer trash tonight
I'm planning on engaging in activities or associating with people that others might consider to be unsavory or uncultured.

'Cause I'm a low life, and I'm lovin' it
I've embraced my identity as a lowlife and don't feel shameful about it. In fact, I enjoy living this way.

I got the whole damn world in the palm of my hand
I feel confident and powerful despite my low-status lifestyle.

No you can't change something that you don't understand
Others may judge or criticize me for the way I live, but they can't do anything about it if they don't understand me or my motivations.

I'm thrilled to be a hillbilly, hate to have to deal with me
I embrace my rural and uncivilized identity, but I understand that others may not appreciate or tolerate my behavior.

Probably just end in a fight
My confrontational and aggressive behavior may escalate to a physical altercation.

No sleeves, can't breathe, doesn't even phase me
I dress in a way that's impractical or unconventional, but I don't care about the discomfort it may cause me.

Naked, sleeping like a baby tonight
I'm so carefree and uninhibited that I won't even bother to wear clothes to bed, and I'll sleep soundly like a baby.

A gun-packin', bitch-smackin', mess with me it's gonna happen
I carry a gun and won't hesitate to physically attack someone who provokes me or messes with me in any way.

Lovin' life livin' in sin
I don't adhere to traditional moral standards, and I enjoy breaking rules or committing immoral acts.

Passed out on the floor, sorry just don't work no more
I'm aware that my behavior can have negative consequences and may result in me losing consciousness or experiencing unwanted outcomes.

Givin' up or givin' in
Despite knowing the potential consequences of my actions, I won't stop behaving like a lowlife and won't give in to societal norms.

Ah fuck it
I'm so carefree and reckless that I'll do whatever I want and disregard any potential negative consequences.

I'm never gonna change as long as I live
I'm fully committed to living the lowlife lifestyle and have no intention of changing myself or my habits.

‘Cause deep down I really know everyone is
I understand that not everyone is perfect and that everyone has their shortcomings and flaws, even those who try to judge or condemn me.

We're low lives, and we're lovin' it
I'm not alone in embracing the lowlife lifestyle, and others feel the same way I do.

We got the whole damn world in the palm of our hand
Despite our low social status, we feel powerful and in control of our lives.

No you can't change something that you don't understand
Others may not understand or accept us, but they can't force us to change who we are.

Being a low life
Embracing a low-status, unconventional lifestyle and not feeling any shame or remorse about it.
