I Quit Music was my hobby, something that I did for fun Now that it's become a job, the damage has been done No amount of money can repair my broken lungs And who cares what yer makin' if yer makin' it alone Sick all the time, I miss my wife - I quit Got better things to do with my life - I quit I quit - I quit Go ahead and say it, tell me I'm getting old Tell me I'm a sellout, but it's you that's being sold See, I refuse to think of rock and roll as my career Tell me all my opportunities, ask me if I care The rock star lifestyle ain't for me - I quit Got somewhere else I'd rather be, so I quit I quit - I quit Go ahead and say it, call me a fuckin' wimp Just cuz I've got a different kind of life that I wanna live You can criticize my ideals and my priorities But ultimately I don't give a flying fuck what you think of me I don't believe in that macho shit - I quit I know there's no way you can understand it - I quit Sick all the time, I miss my wife - I quit Got better things to do with my life - I quit I quit - I quit What'd ya think, I wanted to be Mick Jagger or something, Playing the pixie at 50 or 60? Gimme a break! I mean,I don't wanna grow up and all that, but The time has come for me to say- I quit
