Shine On

Up in a no where town

Where there's no where to go but down

Ariba en un pueblo

Que no esta en nada

Walkin' round in circles in the pouring rain

Waitin' for ya luck to change

The weather vane is spinning out of control wit no directional plane

And that's a metaphor for u cause yo ya feelin' the same

A shame ya didn't go to college get the G.E.D.

Ya play the hoochie up at Hooters on the J.O.B.

Complacency I see the boredom slip a tip in ya bra

Yo what's happening?

It's like ya flippin' burgers for Rob

Ay yo u still got time to shine on

U can decorate yo life any way that u like

U still got time to shine on

But u gotsta get out tonite!

Up in a nowhere town

Where there's nowhere to go but down

And we're just kickin' around

Where we swim and we sink and drown

Ya teachers useta tell ya u were smarter than this

They pinch ya booty -fake a smile and then u tease w a kiss

Ya shift'll end at 1 a.m. and then u cruisin' the strip

And u think u the shit but girl it gets old quick

U flick a butt u know what's up

I tell ya ass to elevate but u be all about the fantasy

Ya future can wait

So make sure you collect the money first

Before u lie down in the bed

Freeloadin' never pay ya folks no rent

Ya hook up with some kid from down the block and hit the shower

Sleepwalkin' thru ya role like Heather Graham in Austin Powers

Yo I calls it like I sees it wanna front grown up?

Now everybody in together now shut the fuck up

Ay yo u still got time to shine on

Heaven knows yo I'm feelin' yo fears

U still got time to shine on

But'cha gotsta get the hell out of here

Up in a nowhere town

Where there's nowhere to
