The Descendents - I Quit [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Sick all the time, I miss my wife
I quit
Got better things to do with my life
I quit
I quit, I quit

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
The rock star lifestyle ain't for me
I quit
Got somewhere else I'd rather be
So I quit
I quit, I quit

[Verse 3]
Go ahead and say it, call me a fuckin' wimp
Just cause 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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
What did you 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
