Lyrics

Seven in the morning, standing in the line Three fools in front of me, drinking on some wine Two in the back of me sucking on a joint And one in back of them ready for a new sport There's four five suckers way way in the back Stooped down low with the crowd smokin' crack They looking at me funny coz I got a record out And a nigga with a record out is supposed to have some proud A forth of the people in the line be hookers But the other forth betta ask help themself A forth of the people having good faith And all of the rest all fucked up in the head A bald headed stank bitch is about to make me laugh And a nigga who need a bath is asking for my autograph Ain't nothing changed but the time I got to get mine, so I'm standing in the county line This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh Cause it's all about money, ain't a damn thing funny This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh You got to have a car in this land of milk and honey I walked through the front door fill out my app Here comes another sap asking if I rap I don't say a word coz he know that I do I'm down with the MAAD ass U know Hoo! I take a numer and a seat I'm sweating from the heat Somebody got their shoes off I smell they feet My number is 80, it's still on 20 I look up at the clock and now IS 10: 30 Free butter and cheese oh please, oh please Can I get my food stamps so I can leave I got money and a car but they don't really know it Now they asking me a gang of questions cause I told them I was homeless I'm living in a car drive back in the alley But I use to shack up with a hooker named Sally Line after line Ruff is the time My life is in a bomb so I'm standing in the county line This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh Cause it's all about money, ain't a damn thing funny This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh You got to have a car in this land of milk and honey I'm sittin' at a desk talking to a social worker She thinks I'm a fool but I know that I can work her Punk ass ho' sittin' behind the window all toe up ass tramp Runnin that ol' weak shit talkin' about "You have a penetentry record" I said I know that BIATCH! She wants to know what kind a work do I do I said I haven't worked since 1982 I can't find a job though I looked and I looked Took one hit of the crack and mistook She sittin there wonderin' what did coz I did And the whole time I'ma watchin like I'm smokin me a joint Job search work the projects whackness And in a few weeks I'd get my check Now I got to wait for them to call me trough the window So I can get some cash to pay for the hotel and the bathshow It's 5:13 by the clock on the wall Mothafuckez move so I can make a phonecall Shit is getting late and the time is 29 That why so many niggas standing in the county line This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh Cause it's all about money, ain't a damn thing funny This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh You got to have a car in this land of milk and honey This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh You got to have a car (This-this-this) This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh Cause it's all about money, ain't a damn thing funny This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh
