Once upon a time in the of plenty The of lawyers, guns and money A little thing we all call greed Brought my hometown down to its
A little bit worried the shape I'm in Baby shoes and the wallet's thin Got no gas or But everybody's in harmony
Sell me up, sell me I be out sittin' here hangin' around my house, take my car But you can't take my seat at the bar my crib, take my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
No block party, evicted No street lights, no liquids I got no room on my credit And I'm three court dates the prison yard
My credit score's like the New York Mets There ain't a debt collector ain't called yet They say, "Money don't talk, it swears" And got me in my underwear
Sell me up, me down I be sold out sittin' here hangin' Take my house, my car But you can't my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
Once upon a time in The went and fell outta love was a raping of the common man And left us here without no plan
through bills like Michael Phelps Down and out and can't get no The kids are hungry, French Poodles through dumpsters for Ramen noodles
Standin' in with a family to feed Tradin' Manhattan for beads It's been a long time since we good Got everybody waitin' on Robin
Sell me up, me down I be out sittin' here hangin' around Take my house, my car But you can't take my at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm my seat at the corner bar
Once upon a time in The politicians went and outta love There was a of the common man And us sittin' here without no plan
Sell me up, me down I be sold out sittin' hangin' around Take my house, my car But you take my seat at the corner bar Take my crib, my car But I'm keepin' my seat at the bar
