Tom: G minor
Verse 1
Bm
Hey Jessica, you daydreaming again?
Are you listening to me, boy?
If you want to stay among the employed,
you gotta follow the rules.
You remember the rules?
Waste away my days for
minimum wage
Praying to a god with no name
rescue me from this cage
Forgive me, I'm thankful in my way
But I had too much reality for one day
C
Fun flies when you do one time
Bm
For an hour of your life
you get six dollars and a dime
C
Bm
I used to be somebody, someplace
But back here in somewhere
I became a disgrace, a job, shit
Haven't had one in years
I'm an artist supposed to
get supported by my peers
But my peers disappeared
and my money ran out
Lost my girl, lost my pride,
even lost my clout
Had ambition and dreams,
plans to be traveling
But took my luck for granted,
and now I'm abandoned
C
Bm
Dropped the brace that slayed years ago
But before my life got cruel and unusual
It's about peace, self -respect,
self -preservation
But both sides of the rhyme
meet in need of salvation
How can I preach peace
when there's hate in my heart?
How can I keep jealousy
from tearing me apart?
What's it like to live like a slob
When you know you're supposed to
be getting paid?
Know you're supposed to be getting laid?
But these without a phrase
already got it made
Try to keep cool, try not to act a fool
I gotta refrain, I gotta maintain
Got to keep myself from going INSANE
Gotta, gotta, gotta stay out of the gutter
Gotta, gotta keep my head up above water
No health insurance,
can't afford payments
It's hopeless, less than two paychecks
from being homeless
Wasting away my days for minimum wage
Pray to a god with no name,
rescue me from this cage
Em
Forgive me, I'm thankful in my way
Am
But I had too much reality for one day
Bm
Hey Ithaca, you're daydreaming again?
Em
Are you listening to me?
Am
If wanna remain among your boys,
you gotta follow the rules
Bm
You remember the rules?
Don't breathe, don't breathe,
don't talk
Am
and turn that goddamn broken music off
Bm
C
I want you to mop the floor,
Bm
and take out the trash
C
Bm
Clean the toilet, and empty the rat traps
Move this here, and then move that
Don't move from back where
they were
when you're done with that
Hitting my head, up against the wall
I've been here before,
but no I ain't gonna fall
Gotta, gotta, gotta break on through
That's what I gotta, gotta, gotta do
I'm at that point, of no retreat
But I'm still at least standing
upon my feet
I've been tooling from hell,
and I live to tell
A story or two, about the wishing well
So, give me respect, at least give me a raise
So I can get a ride and be on my way
Wasting away my days for minimum wage
Pray to a God with no name
rescue me from this cage
Em
Forgive me, I'm thankful in my way
Am
But I had too much reality for one day
for minimum wage
Pray to a God with no name
rescue me from this cage
Em
Am
Em
Forgive me, I'm thankful in my way
Am
But I had too much reality for one day
Bm
Hey, hey, hey, hey, it's a gun, uh -oh
We just ruined that knife
Em
But, you know you're my favorite
you're gonna regret later
