Haley's Comet

yes, this one’s a hit, and we want to know who’s running this /
had very little faith in the government, every since i failed government /
everybody worried 'bout economics,
everybody want to know where the jobs is /
if i recycle enough of this garbage,
maybe i can put my baby girl through college /
don’t it feel like they own us 'cause my brothers don’t look like Jonas /
how you gonna take money for a bailout,
then hand out a million dollar bonus /
see they broke my silence, but we can’t pay to even get violence /
and i want to see the evidence when the situation is
bigger than the president /
it’s gotta be a better way, we just want to see a better day /
tell me there’s a better way to get to a better day /
uh huh, this one is a classic, ay yo do i even have to ask it? /
they say that the best die young, go 'head and throw me in the casket /
now wall street is calling saying my stock is falling /
i’m saying last year we was ballin',
now we can’t even go to play ball man /
and you know it’s depressing, teachers cutting back from the lessons /
we trying to get out the recession and all the kids
want to know is when recess is /
see they broke my silence, but the gas too high for the mileage /
and i want to see the evidence when the situation is
bigger than the president /
it’s gotta be a better way, we just want to see a better day /
tell me there’s a better way to get to a better day /
it’s gotta be a better way, we just want to see a better day /
please tell me there’s a better way, we just want to see a better day /
yo, we gonna do it like this
ceo, rolex watch /
had to sale, just laid off /
no dress shoes, Birckenstocks /
now part time, Jack In Box /
just got sick, no healthcare /
needs some help, ain’t none there /
i swear /
college grad, gucci purse /
unemployed, can’t find work /
no high heels, old Converse /
now part time, grocery clerk /
just got sick, no healthcare /
needs some help, ain’t none there /
i swear, pretty soon, they make us pay for air /
(Grouch told me that) /
it’s gotta be a better way, we just want to see a better day /
tell me there’s a better way to get to a better day /
it’s gotta be a better way, we just want to see a better day /
please tell me there’s a better way, we just want to see a better day /
