I got no use for luxury Yeah so i burn it down Im gona burn it down Burn it down Some days im on top of my life I declare war with pain, and winning the fight So im back in the game to spin that dice But my luck seems to change within that night And by dawn break i wake to find myself In a puddle full of tears, beside myself And a stomach full of fear, describes my health That i cure with liqueur i prescribe myself And its all related to the same old props, same friends, same ha**les And the same old job, gotta 9-5 working, with the same old slob And a boss i never met but his name is Bob Only Bob gets the house and a fancy ride And i guess he made a choice that he stands beside So on my break, i made a plan today Yeah im a stick it to the man today, Ah! I got no use for luxury Yeah so i burn it down * (strike a spark at your lighter son, its about time we got it fired up) Im gona burn it down Burn it down Jesus Christ look at this situation im in I got nothing but a worn out pen and no work Where i sleep and dream of change from above But deep down i know that change must come from within Yeah so with that i gota do what i can The candles burning at both ends And my 2 hands are worn out callous ridden From the poems ive written, a bad liver And my mother f**in bones are splittin But cracking under pressure's no trait of mine And i dont need much more than my state of mind Some good friends, cheap booze And a plate of lines, to get rowdy and having a bloody great old time
