I'm about two days short of begging for change
I got myself a job but it don't pay
I'm about one month short from robbing a bank
Let myself get caught so I got a place to stay
This is what we call just getting by
Ends just never meet no matter how hard we try
We're working double time for half the pay to stay alive
This is what we call just getting by
I'm about 6 months short of killing a guy
Stealing his ID and taking over his life
I'm about one year short of killing myself
I'm finally better off cause there ain't no debt in hell
This is what we call just getting by
Ends just never meet no matter how hard we try
We're working double time for half the pay to stay alive
This is what we call just getting by
All we want is a couple bucks
It's all we need to get us through the week
We ain't asking much
But I guess that just
How the world will work for us
This is what we call just getting by
Ends just never meet no matter how hard we try
We're working double time for half the pay to stay alive
This is what we call just getting by
