[00:32.13]My hands are caught
[00:33.80]I just couldn't get ahead
[00:36.11]

[00:43.28]
[00:47.87]In a week earned money for month
[00:50.17]Got all my jobs done
[00:51.74]My eyelids were sick of it
[00:54.51]Gist was I could sleep for a day
[00:56.42]But bad bills have no respect
[00:59.02]For a decent man's rest
[01:01.43]Flopping on the doorstep
[01:03.13]
[01:03.64]Outlined in color red

[01:12.50]I just couldn't get ahead
[01:14.65]
[01:23.92]On an Asiatic plane with
[01:26.44]Wings not of the grain
[01:28.40]Toilet queue was endless
[01:30.15]Couldn't get a beer
[01:32.58]The hostesses
[01:34.89]Were hostesses
[01:37.22]When I get in toilet
[01:39.30]Light flashes return to seat
[01:41.82]I feared withdrawal
[01:43.55]And I feared beer was making
[01:44.95]Sludge of my head

[02:06.61]Put on some Armani clothes
[02:08.99]And act like E T
[02:11.16]Where I'm at is a cabbage patch
[02:13.48]No longer strewn with weeds
[02:15.70]Have a Ghandi at me
[02:17.57]
[02:18.07]Colour mags wish me well
[02:20.25]No more no get ahead
