Stuck on the Corner (Live)

[Intro]

Y'all feel like singin’ a little?

[Verse 1]

They named that goddamn kiss-ass Handleman

Vice President of Human Resources, or something

He stood up and made a speech about how

We would all have to work even harder now

I thought, "Harder now? Harder at what?"

I'd give up anything to get up and walk out of here but

[Chorus]

I'm stuck on the corner (Yeah yeah)

Of sanity and madness (Oh yeah)

Lookin’ 'em over (Yeah yeah)

Can't see a difference (Oh yeah)

We're making money out of paper, paper out of trees

Making so much money we can hardly breathe

[Verse 2]

You oughta hear the shit that I get from my daughter

She says that she can't stand the sight of the car I bought her

It's gon' ruin her life forever if she don't ride a rag-top

Her and her mother spend my money pretty much nonstop

They’re trying to break me for the sake of this neighborhood

They want everybody up and down the street to think we’re doing good

[Chorus]

We're stuck on the corner (Yeah yeah)

Of sanity and madness (Oh yeah)

Lookin’ 'em over (Yeah yeah)

Can't see a difference (Oh yeah)

Making money out of paper, paper out of trees

We're making so much money we can hardly breathe

[Verse 3]

I didn’t even want to study economics

My parents made me 'cause they said it would be practical

I can't make my kid do a goddamn thing I tell him to

That kid's an unrepentant radical

He is as unimpressed by all these plaques in my cubicle

As I am secretly impressed

With his ability to look at everything so completely irresponsibly

[Chorus]

I'm stuck on the corner (Yeah yeah)

Of sanity and madness (Oh yeah)

Looking 'em over (Yeah yeah)

Can't see a difference (Oh yeah)

Making money out of paper, paper out of trees

We're making so much money we can hardly breathe

[Verse 4]

You know now I've got to call that little pecker Mr. Handleman?

Drove home from work as mad I had ever been and then

I nearly jerked a kid out of a drive-through window

He said, "Will that be everything?" I said "What would you know?

"You're looking at a man about to buy his kid a rag-top

"What are you driving? A bicycle, you little punk?"

[Chorus]

I'm stuck on the corner (Yeah yeah)

Sanity and madness (Oh yeah)

Looking 'em over (Yeah yeah)

Can't see a difference (Oh yeah)

Making money out of paper, paper out of trees

We're making so much money we can hardly breathe

[Outro]

We're making so much money we can hardly breathe

We're making so much money we can hardly breathe
