Get Dressed

If you're too tired too eat the meat Grow a backbone and stand on your own two feet Doesnt' happen in a minute Doesn't happen in an hour Works like soaking in marinade Longer it sits, More flavor is added to the taste of power Lips and a voice allow you to speak Ears allow you to hear Eyes allow you to see You'd rather ignore these miraculous gifts While you relax and drink a beer You wake the next day Disappointed that you've settled for a job you hate Get dressed, drive to work Life is too short for this..common! Why do you wait? No wonder you keep yourself so well groomed You've got nothing else to offer, you feel doomed That mentality wont get you down the block Take a sick day and learn to play with sidewalk chalk Money isn't the root of all evil It's greedy people that want to be in histories sequel.
