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, I 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 by 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 ***in' 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, *** you
