foster the people - life on the nickel lyrics
“life on the nickel”
yet again i’m hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]
but i can’t seem to catch a dime
take a little hit and i lose the time
i took the man and his horse
and ran before he looked up
i said the light’s gonna change
but i’m calm and feeling warm
and now i’m sticking out my hands
and feeling weightless again
you got to push, got to shove
i’ve got to eat before they eat me
got the crown and the cup
i’ve got to write to my family
and say, “i’m calm and feeling warm.”
i’m not quite there, but i’m close
and it’s a world of a difference
yet again i’m hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]
but i can’t seem to catch a dime
take a little hit and i lose the time
i’ve got the worst all behind me
yeah they’ll never be able to find me
i’m the king of the city
i’m a roach and they’re all primates
this is meal time
real life
i’m not gonna fight
no, i’m gonna start a war
i’ve been right
i’ve been wrong
my smokes have come and gone
i’ve been crazy
been fed enough to not wind up dead
and i’m lonely
my eyes have been closed to the world
’cause the world’s got nothing for me
yet again i’m hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]
but i can’t seem to catch a dime
take a little hit and i lose the time
yet again, i’m hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]
but i can’t seem to catch a dime
take a little hit and i lose the time
yet again, i’m hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]
