Once upon a time in the land of The land of lawyers, and money A funny little thing we all call Brought my down to its knees
A little bit worried the shape I'm in Baby needs shoes and the thin Got no gas or But singin' in harmony
me up, sell me down I be sold out sittin' hangin' around Take my house, my car But you can't my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm my seat at the corner bar
No block party, everybody's No street lights, no liquids I got no on my credit card And I'm court dates from the prison yard
My credit score's fallen like the New York There ain't a debt collector that called yet say, "Money don't talk, it only swears" And got me in my underwear
Sell me up, sell me I be out sittin' here hangin' around my house, take my car But you can't my seat at the corner bar my crib, take my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
upon a time in America The politicians and fell outta love There was a of the common man And us sittin' here without no plan
Swimmin' through bills like Phelps Down and out and can't get no The kids are hungry, peepin' Poodles Pickin' through dumpsters for noodles
Standin' in line a family to feed Tradin' for Indian beads It's been a long time since we felt Got everybody on Robin Hood
me up, sell me down I be sold out here hangin' around Take my house, my car But you can't take my at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
Once upon a in America The politicians went and outta love was a raping of the common man And left us here without no plan
Sell me up, sell me I be sold out sittin' hangin' around Take my house, my car But you can't take my at the corner bar my crib, take my car But I'm keepin' my at the corner bar
