Chorus |
|
Everything is A-OK |
|
Because I'm strong as an O-A-K (Oak!) |
|
But money don't grow on trees (nope) |
|
And I'm B-R-O-K-E (Broke!) |
|
Verse 1 |
|
Them rims them rings them things, you can bring em out |
|
I just had my debit card declined at in N out |
|
The line is flipping out. Giving me evil eyes |
|
Fuck the soda, re-run it with just the cheesy fries |
|
cause i don't think money is THE devil |
|
I'm not sinking, i'm just kicking it at sea level |
|
I got my floaties on |
|
I'm focusing on all the wonderful stuff with the force of Obi Wan |
|
Kenobi Bro, I'm broke although I won't be woebegone |
|
Cause even though my bank account is low or overdrawn |
|
I'm down to mow yer lawn |
|
I'm getting open I'm soaking up every moment and so we |
|
should make a toast we won't be sober til the broke of dawn |
|
because beer is cheap |
|
and because love is free |
|
I'm buzzin feeling like every friend is a cousin, G |
|
And someday we'll be reminiscing on some wasn't we |
|
Just so down and out |
|
But we were happy then (cause) |
|
Chorus |
|
Verse 2 |
|
why should I sit on my ass on the couch and be asking why life isn't equal? |
|
with lesser possessions I'm light as a feather and so I can fly like an eagle |
|
Cause everyone dies and I wonder why leaders in power would lie to their people |
|
be planning like they could be fitting a camel up into the eye of a needle |
|
but dammit I'd i settle for fitting a 94 Camry inside of my driveway |
|
i'm sick of the image I'm living my life and i'm doing in my way |
|
I'd rather be making the choices I'm proud of than chasing a mountain of money |
|
But if that mountain comes to me, I'm climbing it |
|
Gotta a brick and I'm laying it down |
|
got a shovel, I'm breaking this ground |
|
because I'm in red |
|
but it's only a color that I will be painting this town |
|
Because when I make it then I dedicate it to friends I stayed with who would do me favors even lend me paper when I couldn't pay for a little takeout |
|
to the fact |
|
that whatever you think that it means |
|
I be here and I'm living my dreams |
|
And it's cause of the people I leaned |
|
on when I came apart at the seams |
|
So gimme the moon |
|
And gimme the spoon |
|
I'm licking it clean |
|
Until there just ain't nothing left |
|
But who will lend a hand |
