Money Money |
|
Nothing but money |
|
I work 9 to 5 but it starts in the |
|
P.M.And I love the sunrise so |
|
I step out in the |
|
A.M.The street is black and shiny from the nightly rainin' |
|
The glory of the light it brings evaporation |
|
Morning's fresh oxygen cleanest |
|
I take a deep hit help my mind stay the greenest |
|
I'm already wake so |
|
I'm not drinkin' coffee |
|
Don't wanna cigarette, 'cause it's a form of slavery |
|
I walk into the store 'cause |
|
I need a few items |
|
The sun heats the blood like a hit of vitamins |
|
As I need to buy some food and some poo for my dreads |
|
I can't remember why but |
|
I need a spool of thread |
|
Well a man with dirty dreads, he steps around the comer |
|
He asks me for a dime, a nickel or a quarter |
|
I don't have any change so |
|
I'm steppin' along |
|
But as I'm walkin' past he sings to me a song |
|
There's a hole in the bucket dear |
|
LizaThere's a hole in the bucket dear |
|
Liza, dear |
|
LizaThere's a hole in the bucket dear |
|
Liza, dear |
|
Liza, Liza |
|
There's a hole in the bucket dear |
|
Liza, dear |
|
LizaThe day is pickin' up cause |
|
I'm hummin' his song |
|
The buses and the people all keep movin' along |
|
To the shopkeeper |
|
I say, "what's up?" |
|
And I'm thinkin' about the man who's holdin' up the cup |
|
I pay for all the stuff and get a pocketful of change |
|
Well should |
|
I give it to the man's the question in my brain |
|
What's gonna happen if |
|
I give the man a dime? |
|
I don't wanna pay for another brothers wine |
|
What's gonna happen if |
|
I give the man a quarter? |
|
Will he find a dealer and try to place an order? |
|
What's gonna happen if |
|
I give the man a nickel |
|
Will he buy some food or some pork that's been pickled? |
|
I'm not responsible for the man's depression |
|
How can I find compassion in the midst of recession? |
|
How come all these questions keep ****in' with my head |
|
And I still can't remember why |
|
I need a spool of thread' |
|
Cause there's a hole in the bucket dear |
|
LizaThere's a hole in the bucket dear |
|
Liza, dear |
|
LizaThere's a hole in the bucket dear |

LizaThere's a hole in the bucket dear |
|
Liza, dear |
|
LizaHe's starin' in my eyes just as |
|
I'm walkin' past |
|
I'm tryin to avoid him 'cause |
|
I know he's gonna ask |
|
Me about the coinage that is in my pocket |
|
But I don't know if |
|
I should put it in his bucket |
|
I walk right past him to think about it more |
|
Back at the crib |
|
I'm openin' up the door |
|
A pocketful of change it don't mean a lot to me |
|
My cup is half full but his is empty |
|
I put back on my cap and |
|
I start headin' back |
|
I reach into my pocket and |
|
I have a heart attack |
|
Well as I'm diggin' deep |
|
I scream, "Oh no" |
|
There's nothin' in the pocket but a great big hole |
|
While I was busy thinkin' if he would buy smack |
|
The jingle in my pocket it slipped through the cracks |
|
No one has the change and it's ****in' up my head |
|
But now I no the reason why |
|
I had to buy the thread |
|
There's a hole in the bucket dear |
|
LizaI said, "There's a hole in the bucket dear Liza, dear Liza" |
|
There's a hole in the bucket dear |

|
