Verse 1:

Somebody call me on the phone

Say hey hey hey it's arty home

You wanna take a walk, you wanna go cop

You wanna go get some chinese rock

Chorus:

I'm living on a chinese rock

All my best things are in hock

I'm living on a chinese rock

Everything is in the pawn shop

Bridge:

Verse 2:

The plaster fallin' off the wall

My girlfriend's cryin' in the shower stall

It's hot as a bitch, i should've been rich

But i'm just diggin' a chinese ditch

Repeat chorus:
