[00:00.44]5:20 am - Pip Skid/Mcenroe
[00:11.85]At 5 20 am my alarm clock attacks that
[00:15.91]Seeps in all the cracks
[00:18.20]And the crevice that ******* clock is a menace
[00:20.75]Barely form a sentence drink coffee like dennis
[00:24.06]Just to stay alert so I don't get hurt
[00:26.10]By spilling a bowl of hot grease all on my shirt
[00:29.72]Or dipping down into the sink to fill a pail
[00:32.41]And having a fork jab up under my nail
[00:35.11]But gotta get my mail cook bacon till it's crispy
[00:38.06]Fighting off some lonely old resident trying to kiss me
[00:41.32]You don't ever wanna leave your parents under the care
[00:44.29]Under these nursing homes and that's something I swear
[00:47.16]Unless you hate your mom want her to suffer
[00:49.85]Then I'll be the sucker who has to cook her supper
[00:53.05]Let's hope she don't give a **** about nutrition
[00:55.66]Not the mission part of the meal that is missing
[00:58.56]And it's nasty if you lack teeth and can't eat
[01:01.56]Everyday mash potatoes and puree meat
[01:04.63]With all these diets not much time for a break
[01:07.12]This health care business don't give it take
[01:10.25]Kitchen full of middle age immigrant ladies
[01:12.98]Been doing the same dishes they've been doing since the 80's
[01:16.18]And they're there now busting their a*s as I write this
[01:18.90]With problems at home carpal tunnel and arthritis
[01:22.14]So I hide some food on the side
[01:24.96]Quietly tell 'em where it's at and then I slide
[01:27.79]Get back to the egg salad cooking the soup
[01:30.57]For money I jump through a fiery hoop
[01:33.21]And some times I get burned it's not worth what I earn
[01:36.48]This job is in session and at 200 it ain't adjourned
[01:39.63]It crawls on my back and I take this **** home
[01:42.15]I can't shake it off it never leave me alone
[01:44.76]This ******* job
[01:47.29]Ooooh I hate this ******* job
[01:50.99]I work 600 to 200 and it conflict with what I do
[01:54.31]You know to see this hip hop come through
[01:57.23]Spend more time with the lady I love
[01:59.79]I don't wanna punch no clock but who does
[02:03.13]To get my rest be in bed by nine
[02:05.59]But my brain is working overtime wanna write a rhyme
[02:08.91]Dream of making money doing what I love
[02:11.38]I don't wanna punch no ******* clock but who does
[02:14.93]Woke up for work
[02:17.64]Woke up for work
[02:20.56]Woke up for work sick and tired
[02:24.22]Tired tired tired
