Everybody pay attention to what |
|
I'm gonna say |
|
I'll tell you my story so you'll understand |
|
What it means to be broke, dropped, and fired in one day |
|
To wake up in the morning with the feeling that it doesn't matter anyway |
|
Once upon a time things were going my way |
|
Nothing ever happened that could bring me down |
|
Thinking that the good times were always gonna stay |
|
But it's been a long time since |
|
I've seen a sunny day |
|
Living in the burb's, waiting for the repo man |
|
To take away my car due to insufficiant funds |
|
I got nowhere to go, and my wife just ran away, |
|
With my lawyer and my credit cards, but that's ok, |
|
They never worked anyway |
|
Growing up |
|
I listened to my parents as they said: ' |
|
Go to school get a job, and then you've got it made' |
|
Maybe that formula worked back in their day, |
|
But I can tell you brother that a lot of things have changed |
|
Looking through the window on to the driveway, |
|
Watching for the repo man 24 hours a day, |
|
Stepping outside, |
|
I raise my .45 |
|
Giving up the future for today |
|
It never worked anyway, |
|
I' m wating for the repo man |
