Corner Bar |
Once upon a time in the land of plenty |
The land of lawyers, guns and money |
A funny little thing we all call greed |
Brought my hometown down to its knees |
A little bit worried about the shape I’m in |
Baby needs shoes and the wallet’s thin |
Got no gas or electricity |
But everybody’s singin' in harmony… |
Sell me up, sell me down |
Be sold out sittin' here hangin' around |
Take my house, take my car |
But you can’t take my seat at the corner bar |
Take my crib, take my car |
But I’m keepin' my seat at the corner bar |
No block party, everybody’s evicted |
No street lights, no runnin' liquids |
I got no room on my credit card |
And I’m three court dates from the prison yard |
My credit score’s fallen like the New York Mets |
There ain’t a debt collector that ain’t called yet |
They say money don’t talk, it only swears |
Got me cussing in my underwear |
Sell me up, sell me down |
Be sold out sittin' here hangin' around |
Take my house, take my car |
But you can’t take my seat at the corner bar |
Take my crib, take my car |
But I’m keepin' my seat at the corner bar |
Once upon a time in America |
The politicians went and fell outta love |
There was a raping of the common man |
And left us sittin' here without no plan |
Swimmin' through bills like Michael Phelps |
Down and out and can’t get no help |
The kids are hungry |
Peepin' French Poodles |
Pickin' through dumpsters for Ramen noodles |
Standin' in line with a family to feed |
Tradin' Manhattan for Indian beads |
It’s been a long time since we felt good |
Got everybody waitin' on Robin Hood |
Sell me up, sell me down |
Be sold out sittin' here hangin' around |
Take my house, take my car |
But you can’t take my seat at the corner bar |
Take my crib, take my car |
But I’m keepin' my seat at the corner bar |
Once upon a time in America |
The politicians went and fell outta love |
There was a raping of the common man |
And left us sittin' here without no plan |
Sell me up, sell me down |
Be sold out sittin' here hangin' around |
Take my house, take my car |
But you can’t take my seat at the corner bar |
Take my crib, take my car |
But I’m keepin' my seat at the corner bar |
