Bought for a Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Come on, now get your ass out of bed
You head what the man said
The crew is already gone
We were all kinda high, but man what were you on?
Tried to take a shuttle to Spain
They kicked me off of the plane
I guess I'll go to Japan
It all looks the same when you stump for the man
And down in the valley we crawl in the alley
Who knew the 101 was so long?
Before you get sold, you get bought for a song
Sake in aluminum cans
It fell in the wrong hands
And now we're chewing the scene
Stumbling out of the Lexingoton Queen
Walking through a German hotel
And not walking ver well
I gotta get to the van
Excuse me, I'm weaving as fast as I can
And tom won't admit he got lost in the city
He's saying that the directions are wrong
Before you get sold, you get bought for a song
And down in the valley we crawl in the alley
Who knew the 101 was so long?
Before you get sold, you get bought for a song
