lyrics

Soon as I’m waking up
Need a little bit of money I don’t make too much
Make due with a pay cut saving a safe bet of cake when I make enough
Man I hate to rush
Dry like paint and a brush
High like facing a Dutch
Not into fibbing at all
My love? Smile on the face in the front
Made in the basement above
I’m nice, and I like making ‘em blush
Sick of whack shit, taken enough
Piggy back kids all faking the funk
You don’t gotta be naked to fuck
Or attract like opposite negative luck
Jump out of a shell with an egg and a cluck
Put an arm and a leg in to beg for a buck
Fuck that, man

What I gotta do to get it through to ya
Drive across-state just to get a paycheck
(2x)

Dollar a day don't make no sense
Spend in scale like fifty a month
Discount beer and the spliff don't end
Second I wake and the tip-toes touch
Ugh, really can't take too much
I ain't gonna take no less
Say they gonna pay you huh?
Ayo bet! Slip on shoes and a gravestone head
Why’s your face so blue
From 603 to 802
His whereabouts depend on which direction this tornado moves
I say today’s a new
I listen to the greatest hits
The men are getting dressed up well to talk about some naked chicks
Like fake titties, the forty-ounce is plastic now
The kids are dressing colorfully, the music has no classic sound
It's that teen spirit, they're sniffing like some Basset Hounds
I’ve never ended up in bathroom parties with my class of clowns
Hippy-stoner-boy is totally baked
Go with the flow I've ended up at every cove of the lake
Oh man
I’m tryna quit smoking again
A rare moment of insight that I sold to my friend
I said

You gotta wait a ways so go wild
You gotta make the day your own child
You can't hate the way you're brought up
You can't take away you're own style
(2x)

What I gotta do to get it through to ya
Drive across-state just to get a paycheck
(2x)
