lyrics

I got a job for the wintertime
you say I'm weak I say straight up dog, I'm a fraud
you like the front I like the back yard
Am I really like this a lot or not?
and I don't really care if I come out on top
I got the village in my DVD player, M. Night Shamalan
7 dip layers, and 6 cold ones
I might run for the mayor, just for fun
and all of y'all could be the counsellors
I've got the anvil strapped to my ankle
I'm not upset I got my eyes closed
I pray to Sagan everyday that my nose holds
and pray to Unger that the fish just snap folds

Let me bet a milly on ya
I am a ghost on my block
I am a cancer
I am a fly on the wall
You drive a range rover
I'm just a puddle of mud

I had a car it was a lemon lime
no 7up but it ran fine
what's on the menu tonight?
broke down, under-qualified
luckily I'm on the front 9
but you know I've got
the anvil strapped to my ankle
I'm not upset I got my eyes closed
I pray to Sagan everyday that my nose holds
and pray to Unger that the fish just snap folds

Let me bet a milly on ya
I am a ghost on my block
I am a cancer
I am a fly on the wall
You drive a range rover
I'm just a puddle of mud
