Everybody that's on my block
They're tired of me that ain't no shock
And I ain't got no idols
I ain't got much taste
I'm shiftless when I'm idle

They told me it's best I wait my turn
I can't wait forever
I can't wait that long
I'm shiftless when I'm idle
I want to play this...

I'm shiftless when I'm idle
I'm shiftless when I'm idle
I'm shiftless
I'm shiftless
