Family Force 5 - Paycheck [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
I'm broke, broke as a joke
Thinking 'bout moving back in with my folks
Walked away from my house now
Watched my bank account go up in smoke
In a mess with the IRS
Still watching my movies on the VHS
God bless, America
I'm a gangsta thanks to ya'll

[Chorus]
I shoulda been a balla, shot caller
But I'm just blue collar
I got my job in Georgia
Trying to get a piece of that peach cobbler

Chasing down that paper
Need a money maker
Spent my life looking for a discount
Now I thank god for the handouts

I can't afford to live this way
I barely live off what I make
Running 'round for money
Begging on my knees
Living paycheck to paycheck
Paycheck to paycheck

[Bridge]
Get yo money, get get yo money
Get yo money, get get yo cash

[Verse 2]
Three sweaters, a coat
I can't keep my heat on
I got nothing to eat on
Never heard of vacation
I think they give those away at the radio station
I work my fingers to the bone
No days off and I ain't coming home
I got a piece of paper in the mail today
Said I still got a balance that I got to pay

[Chorus]
[Bridge Twice]

[Verse 3]
We'll be okay
Don't you worry baby
We gone get paid
You can bet your bottom dollar on it
Don't be afraid
Cuz Ill make it right
Its our lucky day
Cuz I found some change
...
I got a paycheck

[Outro]
I can't afford to live this way
I barely live off what I make
Running 'round for money
Begging on my knees
Living paycheck to paycheck
Paycheck to paycheck

[Bridge Twice]
