lyrics

give me the keys cause I got a degree and I’m ready to feed all one hundred of me / new life’s got me looking under the door / what for / to settle the score / pit bull sniffing trying to get in my space / children tripping trying to get in my way / and I just want to get paid but it’s so hard when it’s so easy / his area code spelled GOD in all caps though he himself was hopeless as a generation with no name / they had eyes resembling lasers / we found fun in bad behavior / how does one ruin something so mundane / never stop learning or you might get dumb / shake it to the rythm of the hum drum / my mind’s going numb / my mind’s gone numb / never stop laughing or you just might cry / take it from the wisdom of a lullaby / in your dreams you can fly / it’s like waking up from a deep sleep a fantasy / turning over a new leaf / need a refrigerator for all that beef / I’ll let you have a piece if you show me your teeth / if you give me the keys cause I got a degree and I’m ready to feed all one hundred of me / And I just want to get paid but it’s so hard when it’s so easy / never stop learning or you might get dumb / shake it to the rythm of the hum drum / my mind’s going numb / my mind’s gone numb / never stop laughing or you just might cry / take it from the wisdom of a lullaby / in your dreams you can fly
