| Parody Written by: | Mike Armstrong |
The life of another American child sitting down to reflect...
I was ten I was thin cuz my dad didn't work
And the welfare checks paid for dad's liquor, that jerk
In dark East St Louis who'd ever think
That a short kid like me
Could pass on XTC
814 Arrow no plumbing or heat
Just an old dark pawnshop and "Tyrell's discount meat"
Now I'm beating the system with Worker's Comp stuff
And when I count my money... I'm glad I'm enough
An American child
An American child
Cuz ghettos are wild when you are
An American child
80 lbs 9 ounces is my pot stash
And the world is so great when I'm high on the hash
With a promise that's more than just whacking a guy
My homies is tight and so I am high
As American child
An American child
Cuz Ghettos are wild when you are
An American child
My Grandpappy turned 47 today
When he was 15 he lied down beside
An American child
An American child
Illigitimate fathers that bear
An American child
And the welfare checks paid for dad's liquor, that jerk
In dark East St Louis who'd ever think
That a short kid like me
Could pass on XTC
814 Arrow no plumbing or heat
Just an old dark pawnshop and "Tyrell's discount meat"
Now I'm beating the system with Worker's Comp stuff
And when I count my money... I'm glad I'm enough
An American child
An American child
Cuz ghettos are wild when you are
An American child
80 lbs 9 ounces is my pot stash
And the world is so great when I'm high on the hash
With a promise that's more than just whacking a guy
My homies is tight and so I am high
As American child
An American child
Cuz Ghettos are wild when you are
An American child
My Grandpappy turned 47 today
When he was 15 he lied down beside
An American child
An American child
Illigitimate fathers that bear
An American child
