| I know a couple jokes
|
| But none as funny as the truth
|
| I know some good folks
|
| And some of them are just like you
|
| I’ll wear the right shoes
|
| So I can outrun everyone
|
| I got the right moves
|
| Like an earthworm in the sun
|
| I gotta get sharp, get sharp
|
| Cut in line right to the best part, best part
|
| Won’t be long until we’re dead hard, dead hard
|
| Oh, my God
|
| That’s the feeling when my fingers go numb
|
| That’s the feeling when the feeling is gone
|
| I’m gonna quit drugs
|
| Stop drinking
|
| Start reading books
|
| I’ll do a lot of thinking
|
| I’ll raise a couple kids
|
| And teach them how to live
|
| The way my mommy taught me before I hit the skids
|
| I’ll get my hair cut
|
| Buy a cheap suit
|
| I’ll change the paystub
|
| 'Cause it’s what I gotta do
|
| Don’t try to get hard
|
| At a 9:00 to 5:00
|
| Behind a desk in a high-rise filing cabinet in the sky
|
| Don’t wait too long
|
| Dream’s almost done
|
| You’re waking
|
| It’s time to wake up
|
| Don’t wait too long
|
| Dream’s almost done
|
| You’re waking
|
| It’s time to wake up
|
| Time to wake up
|
| I gotta get sharp, get sharp
|
| Cut in line right to the best part, best part
|
| Won’t be long until we’re dead hard, dead hard
|
| Oh, my God
|
| That’s the feeling when my fingers go numb
|
| That’s the feeling when the feeling is gone
|
| Maybe it’s my slack or lack of motivation or whatever
|
| (Whatever)
|
| I’ve never had a daddy tell me get my shit together
|
| I gotta get sharp |
