Derek Spears

[Verse 1]

You slept right by the yogurt hut on a painted curb

Wearing nothing but some cut-offs and a muscle shirt

And at 5 AM, the donut girls came quietly to work

When they slid the trays and banged the bowls, you woke up with a jerk

Thirty-two ounce soda to start the day off right

Every now and then remembering little things about last night

Hold on, take five, check out the fox in the Corvette

Then you said, "You know it don't get no better than that"

[Verse 2]

He spent all the money on an ornate waterbed

It had a carving of a tiger right above his head

And he's embarrassed of the fact that he works at Pizza Shack

He says he made 90K a year before he hurt his back

And the money his sister owes him, his cousin has, but he's in jail

There's all these checks that should be arriving any day now in the mail

But mysteriously the checks won't show and the sticky boombox by the door

Will end up getting sold once more for a lot less than before
