| 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 |
