well looks like and what everything
around here what are you to do so not
much just cook and clean and soul and
market and the phone bill the gas bill
the electric bill make the car payments
make the mortgage payment you ask a
simple question I could let them turn
off the electricity turn off the gas
take away the car how can I pay for them
I'm just a kid
grown-ups are supposed to pay for those
things and kids are supposed to enjoy

demand yeah you demand and we supply

done by the time we get back to shopping
