The Lyrics

This is the story of a man who's luck changed in the blink of an eye...
Verse 1
Today, I got up and felt really tired, from that all night jamming
And today I feel bummed, and not fired up cuz I gotta catch the next train
I gotta go, go to work do the 9-5, but the money’s running real low

Chorus
All I’ve got is a dollar in change
I’m starting to feel so ashamed
Started off with about 200 bucks, and then it trickled down to 20 ‘fore the week was up and I
Only got one buck in change

Verse 2
I work at a barbershop, sweeping up split ends, I don’t make money
Then insult to injury I’m really bad with cash and I got horrible credit
My satellite bill is in my lil brother’s name, and the kid is only 14,
(what else I’m supposed to do?!)

Chorus
All I’ve got is a dollar in change
I’m starting to feel so ashamed
Started off with about 200 bucks, and then it trickled down to 20 ‘fore the week was up and I
Only got one buck in change, oohh…

Verse 3
Oh, today I got robbed
The dude put the gun to my chest and his finger on the trigger
And I got scared, and told him the only thing I had on me disappeared
He says “Hey dude, I’m not playin, pay it up!” Then I punched him and stole his gun
And said “You stupid man, you pushed your luck, I have really had enough”…
That’s when I lost my marbles!

Chorus
And now he’s got just one buck in change
I took off and stole his identity
Now there’s a fairy tale ending for me, to the dull boring life that there used to be and now
He’s got just one buck in change
I took his gun, I stole his truck, I made a run
I drained his account and now he’s got one buck in change!

And it turned out my luck was better than I thought and now
He’s got just one buck in change, hey heeeellll YEEEAAAHHH!!! WOO…
Mmmm…change, change
Change, change
Change, is GOOD!
In the song intro I was a chump
But then it turns out my bad run turned into luck and now
He’s got just one buck in change, oh yeah!!!
Did you enjoy! Glad ya did!

Seems a bit wordy, but it does go with the pace of the song. Storyline is solid though, I'd give you a few 4s for this...
