I am the king of the new white underclass
I am the prince of the lazy and poor
I am the one who sleeps the latest
I am the one who won`t do my chores
I am the god of unemployment
The Antichrist of the American dream
I used to fight for church and country
But now I don`t fit into the corporate scheme
I used to get up and go to work
But I don`t play that game no more
I won`t work for no corporation
I won`t owe my soul to no company store
Study hard and you`ll have a future
Oh yeah, when the hell was that ever true?
Study hard and you`ll still go nowhere
Study hard and you`ll still get screwed
I used to get up and go to work
But now I just wanna stay in bed
Maybe I`ll join the Communist Party
Yeah maybe I`ll become a goddamn red
Workers of the world, unite and do nothing
Workers of the world, unite and relax
Don`t get your boss that cup of coffee
Don`t write that memo don`t send that fax
You shouldn`t even pay your income tax
Workers of the world, unite and be lazy
Workers of the world, listen to me
Another 8 hours at the factory
Another 8 hours and what have you learned
Be obedient and do what they tell you
Be obedient and still get burned
Another 8 hours at the factory
Work all day for a tiny little check
Work all day for no respect
I used to get up and do my job
But now I enjoy doin` nothin` better
I think I`ll go bum around
I think I`ll enjoy this lovely weather
Maybe someday there`ll be a revolution
Maybe someday we`ll have meaningful jobs
But until that day I`m gonna be lazy
I`m not gonna be no workin` slob
I used to get up and go to work
But I don`t play that game no more
I`m not gonna work for no corporation
I`m not gonna owe my soul to no company store
I used to get up and go to work
But now I just wanna stay in bed
Maybe I`ll join the Communist Party
Yeah maybe I`ll become a goddamn red
