Stuck On The Corner

Lyrics

You know that goddamn kiss-ass Handelmann
 vice president of human resources or somethin'
 He stood up and made a speech about how we would
 all have to work even harder now
 I thought harder, now, harder than what?
 I would give anything to get up and walk but of here but I'm
 Chorus:
 Stuck on the corner of Sanity and Madness
 I'm lookin them over, I can't see a difference
 Makin money out of paper, makin paper out of trees
 We're makin so much money we can hardly breathe
 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
 I'd be moonlightin forever to buy a ragtop
 Her and her mother spend my money pretty much non-stop
 They're trying to break me for the sake of the neighborhood
 they want to make everyone up and down the street
 to think that we're doing good, but I'm
 (Chorus)
 I didn't even want to study economics
 My parents made me cause they said it would be practical
 I can't make my kids do a goddamn thing I tell them to
 My kid's an unrepentant radical
 He is as unimpressed by the glass in my cubicle
 As I am secretly impressed by his ability
 to look at everything so completely irresponsibly
 (Chorus)
 You know I had to throw a little back at Mr. Handelmann
 Drove home from work as mad as I've ever been an' then
 I moved the kid out of the driveway, you know he didn't
 He left me everything, I said, what would you know
 You're lookin at the man about to buy a kid a ragtop
 I said What are you driving? a popsickle you little punk!
 And now I'm
 (Chorus)
