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