about

lyrically indebted to "big business monkey" by daniel johnston

lyrics

Today is my last day
Being underpaid, man

give me a raise
or i’ll spill out ya secrets

you do coke every minute
but call poor people crackheads
you throw chairs at the ceiling
brag about meditating

Oh, oh, don’t think I work hard?

Oh, oh, quit skimming our tip jar
Oh, oh, your ex-wife called
If she knew the things you did
She’d leave you now, oh wait, she did


Big man, you look so strong
but you’re so scared of everyone
Big man, you seem so mean

But you’re just scared of little old me

you were born a winner
you get off getting richer
but you’re actually lazy
good at looking important

you’ll take over the whole world
but you can’t take it with you
everybody you screwed
will be glad to forget you

oh, oh, you’re lucky you’re handsome
oh, oh, know why you date so young?
oh, oh, you prey on everyone
relinquish your small businesses
we run this place, you’re just a dick

Big man, you look so strong
but you’re so scared of everyone
Big man, you seem so mean
But you’re just scared of little old me



I’m not out of line
Just taking my time
Why should I wanna work harder than you
I just gotta lie
Won’t survive otherwise
You are the very best boss I ever had



I get the feeling you hate me every day
You only care about having it your way

I’m not a robot, I am a human being with needs
Do you believe in anything besides your money?

If I was lazy, would’t mind selling out
A simple slip, I’d fit right into your white boy posse clout
I’m not a robot, I am a human being with needs
Do you believe in anything besides your money?

Big man, you look so strong
but you’re so scared of everyone
Big man, you seem so mean

But you’re just scared of little old me
