"Derek Spears" lyrics
He 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
32 ounce soda to start the day off right
Every now and then remembering little things
About last night
Hold on, take 5, check out the fox in the corvette
Then you said, "you know it don't no better than that"
He spent all the money on an ornate waterbed
It had a carving of a tiger right above his head
And he's embarassed 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
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
32 ounce soda to start the day off right
Every now and then remembering little things
About last night
Hold on, take 5, check out the fox in the corvette
Then you said, "you know it don't no better than that"
He spent all the money on an ornate waterbed
It had a carving of a tiger right above his head
And he's embarassed 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
