The Big Royalty Check
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.
I'm waiting
for my royalty check to come,
and it still hasn't come yet.
It's about a year
over due.
I guess it's coming
from the Big Royalty Check in the sky.
I waited and the mailman
never dropped it in my letterbox.
Oh, oh-oh, oh...
I guess it's a Big Royalty Check in the sky.
Oooh baby.
But you can't
beat the tax man
and me
all at once.
