Hey, hey

Look closer, you can see all the money
I got a dollar bill in the cockpit
Surprised that your wallet is a black hole
I got another job at the liquor store, damn!

Oh well, I'm bone broke

They got a white pony in the stable
And ride him when the doggie isn't able
But he doesn't really care because they pay him
But, still, a black suit is gonna shake him down

Oh well, I'm bone broke
Hey, broke as I'll ever be

It look another way, girl, I'm telling ya
God gave seven minutes right to ya
And your mother put her money into platinum
And now you never have to pay attention, do ya, do ya?

Uh huh

Yeah, I'm kneeling on a brick with my nails
I'm telling her the money's in the mail
Keeps shiny in my box, never fake it
But now the brick breaker's gonna break it down

Oh well, I'm bone broke

Look another way, girl, I'm telling ya
God gave seven minutes right to ya
Your mother put her money into platinum
So that you wouldn't have to pay attention, right?
