Verse 1 Willard’s got trophies on the bedroom wall Gold plastic heroes and a matching set They don’t blink, they don’t judge They don’t give a damn about much There’s a plant in the corner dying slow Like it’s bored with being alive, you know Radio’s stuck on the same damn song Been wrong all day, been wrong all along Pre-Chorus Yeah, yeah it’s all fine Yeah, it’s cool this time Everything’s broken in this place Yea come on , come on Chorus Bowling trophies don’t care If you win or if you lose Bowling trophies don’t care If it’s Sunday afternoon Bowling trophies don’t care They just stare at you Yeah, they just stare at you Verse 2 Willard says time’s just a dirty trick Like a cheap motel or a burned-out kick The fridge hums low like it’s in a band Plays one note, says, “You’ll understand” There’s a spider in the second-place cup Living like he already gave up He knows things you don’t wanna hear About boredom, faith, and cheap beer Pre-Chorus Yeah, it’s slow Yeah, it’s loud Everybody’s lost Everybody’s proud Chorus Bowling trophies don’t care If you’re high or you’re bored Bowling trophies don’t care If you’re praying to the floor Bowling trophies don’t care They’ve seen it before Yeah, they’ve seen it before Bridge Roll the ball Down the hall Watch it curve Watch it fall Nothing means What you thought Strike or gutter It’s all bought Break (It’s all bought) (It’s all bought) Final Chorus Bowling trophies don’t care If you stay or you go Bowling trophies don’t care If you ever really know Bowling trophies don’t care They shine either way Yeah, they shine anyway Outro Willard turns off the light Says, “Good game” to the room The trophies glow just enough To pretend it means something soon
