lyrics

YOU
see me as the scum of the earth for six bucks an hour
Your stare is telling me what I'm worth
and don't tell me that knowledge is power
So uptight
you got your dick to the right
bet you don't even eat white bread
and you know that I'd be surprised if I found out
that you ever gave
head

So many bosses so little time
Killing an asshole shouldn't be a crime
shouldn't be a crime
but then I'd
already be dead.

Staring at the chalkboard
You know that it's a lazy game
but in this world
you gotta ante up
or you're gonna have to live alone in shame
Forty more hours
a testimony
to my day at the salt mine
Get comfortable kissing ass
or be comfortable doing time

So many bosses so little time
Killing an asshole shouldn't be a crime
Shouldn't be a crime
shouldn't be a crime
but then I'd
already be dead.

I am here
to steal back what you borrowed
Put your lack of defense away
because the literal meaning
is still a lie

I can believe that you lie

Why
I can see you as a teacher
You
are the reason for the nuclear bomb
and I
can't believe
that you see yourself as a teacher
while you are the reason for
the nuclear bomb

At the same time
I am slipping
at the same time
I am slipping
I cannot let myself slide
I cannot let myself slide
I cannot let myself slide
I cannot
I cannot let myself slide
I cannot let myself slide

I am here
to steal back what you fucking borrowed
so
put your lack of defense away
because the literal meaning
is still a lie
Why?

So many bosses so little time
Killing an asshole shouldn't be a crime
shouldn't be a crime
shouldn't be a crime
but then I'd
already be dead.
already be dead.
