I'm like nine hours away from finishing my nine hour shiftAnd wishing I was gone nine hours ago'Cause nine hours wasted tossin' back the chickenI could've written nine verses just in time for the showSlacker mind state retirin' on time that's borrowedMy motto's I'll stop procrastinatin' tomorrowI took the sorrow from the windchimesLeft happiness lonesome and strung upSarcasm to make the melody wholesomeFrom my lungs to my feet I'm breathingEverything I speak but now they're charging for oxygenAnd the bills due next week, I'll be a day late and a buck shortStory of my life, I wish my pay rate was much moreDuckin' swords in a rat raceI didn't apply for running towards something that's fakeAnd thinking, why for, they're shutting doors right in my faceAnd sitting high horse is a car and a dope placeSomething to die for, this is my warAnd now I'm schemin' on plots to make my pockets swellSimple living is a bitch but damn, I do it wellSome are fortunate to make it and some of 'em failSome locomotives push through and some of 'em get derailedSchemin' on plots, hey heySimple living is a bitch, hey heySome are fortunate to make it, hey heySome locomotors push through, hey heyI lead a crocodile mile lifestyle I run and slideBut when it's time to collide with the bumpI always bail 'cause I'm not ready for that diveOr that silly 9-5 solidified career optionA hop skip and a leap away from rock starAnd not too far away from fillin' pop's shoesThe idyllic hard workin' type of callous feetComplete with wife, kids, dog, house and picket fenceThat's nonsense, I'm convinced I'm built for better thingsAnd won't settle for the empty smile that cheddar bringsIt seems like i'm working hard simply'Cause it's what they say I have to doYou graduate and then you either get a job or you go to school12 years wasn't enough, that's more than half of my life spentTrying to make the world accept mePlus I've got the papers saying that I made it throughNow I'm working 2 jobsThree with music and you don't respect me?Fuck it I'll retire now, you'll work until you're 62And now I'm schemin' on plots to make my pockets swellSimple living is a bitch but damn, I do it wellSome are fortunate to make it and some of 'em failSome locomotives push through and some of 'em get derailedSchemin' on plots, hey heySimple living is a bitch, hey heySome are fortunate to make it, hey heySome locomotives push through, hey hey
