I live my life the best I can, sometimes I need a change Losing all my marbles wasn't part of the game Existing day by day tormented by the telephone It's hard enough to live my life, why don't you live your own? I pay out money with a check, I never use the cash Collectors closing in on me, is this some kind of test? Borrow is my middle name, the banks give graciously With interest rates that terrify, they knock you senselessly Bounce a check, lie a bit, do without I'm in hiding, just leave me be This is the first step to my date with poverty You sit there in your cushy job and call me on the phone You want my money and everything I own I'll pay you soon as I get paid, the check is in the mail Don't call my home anymore, I've long since jumped bail Bounce a check, lie a bit, do without I'm in hiding, just leave me be This is the first step to my date with poverty I'm in hiding, just leave me be This is the first step to my date with poverty Living on a shoestring daily, maybe I'll make some money maybe I hope to make a living someday, then I'll pay you what I owe you Then you'll get off my back! Someday I'll get ahead of things and life will be so grand I'll buy a house down my the beach, stick my feet in the sand For now I'll do what I can do to keep this dream alive Until I win the lottery I must survive Bounce a check, lie a bit, do without I'm in hiding, just leave me be This is the first step to my date with poverty I'm in hiding, just leave me be This is the first step to my date with poverty I'm so fuckin' broke I can't even afford to pay attention Don't you know who I am? You got any food? I need a drink Aw, f*ck you
