Lyrics

This song right here should only be played on dole day
It's for the fuckin' bums, ya know?
I got two dozen in the fridge
Plus I got another two dozen on the way
And I just got paid from WINZ
(Yeah, bro)
So, it's gonna be on today
(Another day I'm on)
The benefit, the benefit
(I'm on the)
The benefit, the benefit
(Bummin' on the)
The benefit, the benefit
The benefit, the benefit
I get my money for nothing, I'm who I dreamed to be
Scammin' the government, and lovin' it up on easy street
I got my DVD, my PS3, and TV free
Plus, I got my misses preggo, now we'll get the DPB
I love being me, I'm just a groovy guy
I went from thinking suicide up to super size
They gave me loot to buy, me a new suit and tie
So I took my cutie pie to get some soup and Thai
'Cause I gotta get low like a deer
And I ain't got a moment to spare
So I gotta be quick when they're telling me a whole lotta shit that I don't want to hear
Like, "When you get a job interview, you gotta really make sure that you know what to wear
If you ever wanna go anywhere"
Yeah, blah, blah, blah, blah, bro, I don't care
Walk in an interview looking like a bum, I ain't had a shave in over a year
Kick up my feet on the boss's desk. Pick up a pen and I'm poking my ear
Scratching my balls, stroking my beard
"Bro, can I light up a smoke up in here?"
"Its only a joint, don't be a queer. Can I use this trophy to open a beer?"
Yeah, that's the way that I lie (What)
Ain't worked a day in my life (What)
I think I'ma fly to Brazil (What)
And you're gonna pay for the flight (What)
Now you can hate if you like (What)
Or you can take my advice
When you apply, stick up the line
"Gimme me my money!"
"Gimme my ride"
I got two dozen in the fridge
And I got another two dozen on the way
And I just got paid from WINZ
(Yeah, bro)
We know it's gonna be on today
(Another day I'm on)
The benefit, the benefit
(I'm on the)
The benefit, the benefit
(Bummin' on the)
The benefit, the benefit
The benefit, the benefit
I lay around, and make about two hundred bucks a week
I made the couch into my house, my life is fuckin' sweet
I never score, I get a bottle full of drugs for free
Chuck 'em all in a cup of tea, and it's just like poppin' a couple E
See, 'cause I believe that in this life, there are choices
I made the choice to tell my doctor that I've been hearing voices
He said, "You're schizophrenic"
I said, "I'm richophrenic"
He said, "What did you say now?"
I said, "Shit, I'm in it. It's authentic"
Man, I'm being too loud in my mind
"What year is it again? Three thousand and nine?"
"Man, what the fuck is that big round red thing hiding behind that cloud in the sky?"
"That's weird, man. How does it fly? Wish I could fly"
"Well, what if I, what if I just jumped out of this window right now?"
"Would I die? How 'bout I try?"
"Anyway, yesterday down at the mall, I was like, looking for this mountain to climb"
"And I met this dude, and his name was God"
"And woah, talk about out of it, guy"
"And he said that the world's gonna end"
"But maybe I'm seeing things, maybe I'm out of my mind"
"Gimme a couple more pills, and it'll be nothing to worry about, I'll be fine" (Got the pills)
Yeah, that's the way that I lie (What)
Ain't worked a day in my life (What)
I think I might fly to France (What)
And you're gonna pay for the flight (What)
Now you can hate if you like (What)
Or, you can take my advice
When you apply, stick up the line
"Gimme me my money!"
"Gimme my ride"
I got two dozen in the fridge
And I got another two dozen on the way
And I just got paid from WINZ
(Yeah, bro)
It's gonna be on today
(Another day I'm on)
The benefit, the benefit
(I'm on the)
The benefit, the benefit
(Bummin' on the)
The benefit, the benefit
The benefit, the benefit
I just like to thank my case manager
(Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shot!)
And send a shout out to all my ladies on the DPB
(Two hundred a week. I do nothing)
Yeah, let me take the kids to the pools this Thursday. I got you 'cause I just got my clonus supplement
(Shout to our sound engineer for having a real job, and hookin' us up with the benefits)
Plus I'ma apply for that business grant. Shit, you can get 5 grand on that shit. That us, suckers
This is for you, John
Shot for the money, John
(Shot bro)
(Cheers for that mate)
(Fuck this government, I'll take all ya money)
