The letter of ‘The boss’, complete
Seven and thirty has sounded the alarm
I want to be in bed
But you can’t
I take the children at nine
The same coffee, the same kitchen
The same as always, the same routine
Another shitty day
Another day in the office
I have a shit chief who doesn’t pay me well
I came walking and he in Mercedes Benz
It has me recruit
The very son of a bitch, Yeah
You are dreaming of leaving the neighborhood
You have everything to be a millionaire
Expensive tastes, the mentality
You just lack salary
You are dreaming of leaving the neighborhood
You have everything to be a millionaire
Expensive tastes, the mentality
You just lack salary
Invoices accumulate, being poor is garbage
Mom always told me that studying everything assures
I studied and nothing happened, damn life so hard
Work more than a bastard, but fuck less than a priest
What irony, what madness, this is torture
You kill yourself from sun to sun and you don’t have a writing
They say there is no harm that more than a hundred years hard
But there is still my former father -in -law who does not steal
I have a shit chief who doesn’t pay me well
I came walking and he in Mercedes Benz
It has me recruit
They have you recruit
The very son of a bitch
The very son of a bitch
