Gotta real job and it’s OK Don’t bust my ass but I get my pay They got me donuts on my birthday Sometimes I wonder if There’s a better way Gotta real job and it sucks bad I bust my ass and I end up mad They said this gig was a launching pad At least now I don’t have To live with my dad! Gotta real job and it ain’t fair ‘Cause I can work in just my underwear Sit at the keyboard in my dreary lair And wonder what the hell is going on out there!

Got a tie Tie it ‘round my neck Check my shirt Can’t find a speck Scan my face ‘fore I hit the deck This is how I score a paycheck Whatcha want? To party all nite Whatcha got? No party in sight [Say] Whatcha need? Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta get out of this uniform Seems I had it on since I was born Got holes in the knees and is tattered and torn Gotta get out Gotta get out Got a shirt With little blue stripes Can’t help that They go with my wipes Can’t complain I’ve had worst gripes I can fit in With the gung-ho types Got a badge But they got my name wrong But I don’t mind Just gettin’ along Not gonna quit Fit in with the throng They won’t know As long as I’m strong Whatcha want? To party all nite Whatcha got? No party in sight [Say] Whatcha need? Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta get out of this uniform Seems I had it on since I was born Got holes in the knees and is tattered and torn Gotta get out Gotta get out This ain’t me But I wear the suit Don’t care too much I still get to shoot Not gonna stop Do it for the loot Just don’t care If I get the boot Whatcha want? To fight the good fight Whatcha got? Watch the clock all night [Say] Whatcha need? Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta hang tight Gotta get out of this uniform Seems I had it on since I was born Got holes in the knees and is tattered and torn Gotta get out Gotta get out Gotta get out of this uniform Seems I had it on since I was born Got holes in the knees and is tattered and torn Gotta get out Gotta get out

Little White Lies 02:45
lyrics

They told me to buy crypto I was told I wanted in So I bought up some lite coin Waited for the dividend The waiting has now gone long I’ve watched it rise and fall Not sure that they were that up-front And they don’t answer my call Ya told me your little white lies And you told ‘em to my big fat face And I believed your every word But there was no truth there anyplace She said we don’t need lawyers We will just split everything It will be so much easier And you can take back your ring It was music to my ears Everything will work out fine You go your own way And me I’ll go mine Ya told me your little white lies And you told ‘em to my big fat face And I believed your every word But there was no truth there anyplace Ya told me your little white lies And then you sent me on my way And on the way was when I found out That there were all kinds of hell to pay Maybe that’s little to you Maybe that’s partially true Maybe that’s fine to your crew Maybe you don’t mean to screw Maybe that’s just innocent Maybe it’s all just well meant Maybe you think I consent But man my trust has just went Just what I was looking for Was the perfect fit and style Had a scratch and dent or two Still the best I’d seen in a while They said it would last forever A little love was all it’d need I got it then and now I know Wish my name wasn’t on the deed Ya told me your little white lies And you told ‘em to my big fat face And I believed your every word But there was no truth there anyplace Ya told me your little white lies And then you sent me on my way And on the way was when I found out That there were all kinds of hell to pay

Hey there Mr. Sonshine Come on Let me feel your glow Lost a close friend today and I’m feeling pretty low Please come down from your glorious throne Come visit me ‘cause I’m on my own Come sit with me ‘cause no one’s home Hey there Mr. Dayspring Come on Let me feel your shine Lost another good one today and She was a good friend of mine Hey there Mr. Prince of Peace Come on Let me feel your hug Lost a good friend today and She was my lady bug Please come down from your glorious throne Come visit me ‘cause I’m on my own Come sit with me ‘cause no one’s home Ah I don’t think it’ll be alright And Ah I don’t have the strength to fight I’ve got to see ‘em come And I’ve had to see ‘em go Guess the older that you get The more dead people you know Hey there Light Of the World please Let me feel you near Lost a good friend today and She was pretty dear Hey there Mr. King of Kings Please come hug my neck Lost a good friend today and I am just a wreck Please come down from your glorious throne Come visit me ‘cause I’m on my own Come sit with me ‘cause no one’s home Please come down from your glorious throne Come visit me ‘cause I’m on my own Come sit with me ‘cause no one’s home Watched her get the news and I watched her cry Watched her struggle then I watched her die Now I don’t even really want to try

I’m losing I’m losing I’m losing I’m losing I’m losing what I want I’m losing I’m losing I’m losing I’m losing what I want I’m losing I’m weaker I’m weaker I’m weaker than I want I’m weaker I’m losing I’m losing I’m losing what I want I’m losing what I want It looks real bad Might hurt a tad Might turn out sad Got to admit Might oughta split Might have to quit Bottom of the ninth But we ain't done We ain't done Count at oh and two But we ain't done We ain't done I’m losing I’m losing I’m getting my ass kicked I’m losing I’m weaker I’m weaker I’m weaker than I want I’m weaker It’s harder It’s harder It’s harder than I want It’s harder than I want I’m older I’m older I’m older than I want I’m older than I want Looks like a fail Might hit the trail Skip out on bail It’s gone all wrong I’m not that strong Might run along Timer running out But we ain't done We ain't done Had a scoring drought But we ain't done We ain't done I could never be done, They told me “finish what you started” but I started too much Too many times is never enough. All I ever do is keep on running it up (how much?) It’s not for you to discuss. I’m an open book, but I ain’t opening up. Your middle fingers, start throwin em up Me puttin it down sounds like a line with no punch, I could never get it. And it’s simple math really, cause it doesn’t add up. I’m losing I’m losing I’m getting my ass kicked I’m losing I’m weaker I’m weaker I’m weaker than I want I’m weaker It looks real bad Might hurt a tad Might turn out sad Back is on the mat But we ain't done We ain't done Mighta knocked me flat But we ain't done We ain't done No time on the clock But we ain't done We ain't done Time to walk the walk But we ain't done We ain't done Let’s get it

Comes from Cleveland But he rises to the top Shows up on Soul Train The man knows how to bop We’re not talking Jordan Nor Denzel Washington We’re talking about the guy Who’s cool and way more fun Arsenio It’s Arsenio Hall Arsenio senio Hall Thicke of The Night Sidekick extraordinaire you know. Winds up In Hollywood. Gets his own talk show He sure ain’t Dennis Rodman And he sure ain’t Wesley Snipes We white folks got to see the man And not the stereotypes Coming to AmerIca Four roles the man can play Drops a record “Large and in Charge” As big ol’ Chunky A It’s Arsenio It’s Arsenio Hall Arsenio senio Hall It’s Arsenio It’s Arsenio Hall Arsenio Hall Comedian, actor Host with wherewithal There can only ever be Just one Arsenio Hall He sure ain’t Dennis Rodman And he sure ain’t Wesley Snipes It’s Arsenio It’s Arsenio Hall Arsenio senio Hall It’s Arsenio It’s Arsenio Hall Arsenio Hall

Amanda she got a suspicious mind To reality she just ain’t confined She’s always thinking that she’s been maligned You just can’t win like that Momma ain’t looking happy But ain’t nothing going on Momma acting all crappy But ain’t nothing going on She say whatcha doing with this long blonde hair Don’t tell me that you picked it up at daycare I know you been watching that girl named Claire You see what I mean right Momma ain’t looking happy But ain’t nothing going on I ain’t feeling too gutsy But ain’t nothing going on I’m walking on my tip-toe But ain’t nothing going on I’m looking for some ammo But ain’t nothing going on She wants to see my phone and read all my texts And who wants that now that the girl is so vexed? She’ll read all that stuff and take it out of context Nobody wins like that. So she stole my phone while I washed a plate But it’s got no bats so we at stalemate So she plugs it in and we have to wait I don’t think this ends well I’m walking on my tip-toe But ain’t nothing going on I’m looking for some ammo But ain’t nothing going on Even if I wanted to cheat Who’s gonna wanna kiss this cheek? Look at me, I’m shaped like a pear Torn t-shirt and stained underwear Make just enough to pay the rent What crazy gal would want this gent? Now she’s got my phone and fingering my text Wonder what she’s gonna wanna see next Now I’m the one with a big complex This ain’t no way to live Now she’s done with the texts and walking away And after all that she got nothing to say I guess this is just another week day This ain’t no way to live Momma can’t be that happy There ain’t nothing going on Momma can’t be all crappy There ain’t nothing going on I’m walking with my head high There ain’t nothing going on Do what I do to get by There ain’t nothing going on
