Pack away your wordy rhymes
'Cause it's all a waste of time
You can't sell your precious art
But there's a cure for bleeding hearts
We've all gotta swim to the bottom
The fun begins at the bottom
The air gets thin at the bottom line
It's deep - sea green at the bottom
It gets pretty mean at the bottom
It's a back - stabbin' scene at the bottom line
Never mind your "noble" fight
Or your whims of wrong & right
You're getting weaker by the hour
Because those ghost have lost their power
They must kneel to the bottom
That's what's real at the bottom
Beg, borrow, steal at the bottom line
But if you can score at the bottom
You can hide from the roar of the bottom
Of the class - color war at the bottom line
Trade your childhood guise
For a suit of grown - up sighs
Just a hypocrite, you see
You're no different than me
It's the haves & have - nots at the bottom
Take your best shot at the bottom
The soup's gettin' hot at the bottom line
But once you take a drink from the bottom
Like a stone you'll sink to the bottom
There'll be no time to think at the bottom line
There's a shady lookin' guy at the bottom
Don't look him in the eye at the bottom
Hurry on by at the bottom line
Let the buyer beware at the bottom
It ain't all about fair at the bottom
I'll see you there at the bottom line
It's the haves & have - nots
Take your best shot at the bottom
I'll save you a spot at the bottom line
