Minimum Wage Slave

Gotta wake up at 8 but I can’t, I can’t, I can’t

Cause running through my mind is sawed offs, murder, panic, and mayhem

You don’t wanna wake this beast, I curl up tight under my sheets

But Chick McGee on my alarm reminds me that I cannot sleep

So yeah, I put on my polo, dress slacks, dress shoes, look for my black frames

Cause I gotta see so I can make pizza and sell you kids video games

Nerds think I’m living the dream: free pizza and free PSPs

But Beefy probably should roundhouse kick them and see if they’re all on PCP

Electronics don’t come cheap, I could probably get a better deal on eBay

When I tell 'em they should reserve a game they don’t listen to a word that I

say

So excuse me if I don’t feel bad and drop down to both of my knees

'Bout how you wanted Guitar Hero but it sold out on the Wii

Come in here all the time, you’re still paying for extra bacon

Don’t try to take advantage by making up fake relations

But I can’t feel too bad.

Washington — we make seven ninety three

And ya know it’s going up again to eight bucks in January

Get up.

And I got holiday hours creeping up on me daily and nightly

If I gave you a gun, would you shoot me if I asked you nicely?

Don’t keep razor blades behind the counter, giving me some dark ideas

Wish these kids would just go home, who needs games when you still got Hot

Wheels

Broken neon sign out front says that I work at umbia Center

Never shoplift, but if she’s cute and busty then I’ll probably let her

Well, I’m-a slave for the minimum wage, probably should have just kept my fat

ass in school

Twelve years too long, now I’m a pawn, every damn day played like a fool

I smell like onions and garlic, I feel empty and cathartic

I see myself as a moocher, I’ll taste success in the future

Cause what you hear is so damn sweet other MCs bow down to my feet

That’s just a dream, because actually, I’m more like 12 steps from the elite

I’m an artist with this mic but same goes with pepperoni and dough

Don’t even tell me your topping, my fingers already know

I’m down the best I can, 2 jobs I’m the man with a mic in my hand

But folks in this land they don’t understand

When the shit hits the fan that’s all in my plan

Get up.

I’m a minimum wage slave, working for the Man, yeah

Every dollar that I make they take it from my damn hand

Working two jobs, and I burly get by

But I gotta suck it up cause sadly this is my life

And I don’t know what I can do

I don’t know enough words I can say to you

To make you understand that I’m just a man

Not a fan of dollar bills being snatched from my hand

Now I pay rent for real

Using change in my car just to pay my bills

Hockin my TV, living life cheaply

No more ladies who’s dads wanna beat me

'Cause now I don’t have the cash for a dork date and to treat you proper

Guess life is a bitch and there’s no way a dude like me could ever stop her

Now I just sit at home

Fat ass in the living room all alone

Fake ass YT, hacking encryptions

So Microsoft doesn’t end my Live subscription

Overdrafting on the daily just to get gasoline in my truck

But still I tip like a pimp cause frankly not giving a… darn

Just give me the check, you can keep the fame

I don’t care if Joe Blow’s never learning my name

Stomach’s got pain and it’s totally lame

Got shame from this game and I’m going insane

Get up.
