Like it's not enough
I broke my arm,
And went on short-term
DISability
Now I'm back at work
On light duty
(translation: light duty pay)
And the stupid paper check
Is taking an extra day to clear,
Tell that to the water company
Now that I'm overdrawn !
And my ass**** roommate
(the one without a job)
Wants cigarettes !
So he bitches me out
When I say I'm broke,
Like I'm lying or something !
I want him to drop off the face of the earth...
