The Scabs So song lyrics

You drive around in a brand new Mercedes

While you're living in a shack

And I've heard you're buying drinks for the ladies

While the barman runs a tab

And I don't think a suit and tie

Can cover where you come from

Maybe if you play it sly

But the people aren't that dumb

So you work another week

'cause the future's looking bleak

Have to satisfy this greed

So if your boss is passing by

Try to take him by surprise

Ask a raise before he dies

It's getting hard to keep on pretending

Just for the sake of looking flash

After all there's no happy ending

I wonder where you'd get the cash

Monday mornin' is a dive

Another weekend bit the dust

You'll exceed your credit line

And that car will turn to rust

So you work another week

'cause the future's looking bleak

Have to satisfy this greed

So if your boss is passing by

Try to take him by surprise

Ask a raise before he dies

Can't afford to be too late

'cause the bills have to be paid

Got to keep up your charade

So you work all hours God sends

Pay the loan sharks pay the rent

How much money have you spent
