lyrics

Gym teacher wanna single me out
Don’t you know I got low self esteem
On stage and they turned the lights on
Don’t you know I got a dream
Papa wasn’t a rolling stone
Papa sewn to the couch
I’m all alone cos I got self doubt
Therapy every week what do you think we talk about
Since the days of walk it out
Superman that hoe
I came to shake things up like a snow globe
You got Jordan’s, I got the BOGO
That’s Payless
You got name brands, I got rain checks

Gym teacher wanna single me out
Don’t you know I got low self esteem
On stage and they turned the lights on
Don’t you know I got a dream

Mama wasn’t a rolling stone
Mama wasn’t a Beatle
Mama taught me not to trust people
The evils that men do
The flowers I sent you
Get it together when the rents due
My arms bend back too
Last few years have been the best of my life
But I’m still depressed every night
An emotional roller coaster ride
You might call it suicide
Keep it all inside till it forms an ulcer
The size of a flying saucer
The reasons why I lost her
I’m such a sleeper
Saint peter cotton tail
Won’t you send me a dream
On the stage and they turned the lights on
Don’t you know I got low self esteem

Fuck cops, go teach gym
Quit your job and sleep in
Kill yourself and your radio
It’s the only other thing I know

Television living got you swimming in the linen
Mr. Sandman on your mind and you’re grinning
Drooling on a pillow, dying in your sleep
You’re such a negative creep
I’m in too deep
Guitar solo in the pool
Guess I ain’t going back to school
You’re all alone in the world
But you gotta open the shell to get the pearl
Don’t sweat the girlies
There’s no need for being early
In bloom, reproductive glands
Keep thinking you’re the fucking man
Ducking plans and staying home
Loneliness is a warm gun
All we want is a hand to hold

I’m mellow gold
I’m the china bus
I sold my soul
But they lied to us
I’m Girard ave
I’m pizza brain
I’m new years day
Mummers parade
I’m Joe’s steaks
I’m whiz cheese
I think I’m big Meech
I’m Wawa, hoagie fest
Super Bowl champs, best dressed
I’m street parking, I’m septa
At Brewerytown beats buying records
Off the shelf
I’m the liberty bell
I’m the crackhead giving you hell
What’s that smell?
I’m Fishtown
Put my thing down
Flip it and reserve it
Beautiful Art
U Deserve it!
