lyrics

Six o'clock! Time to wake up, lazy!
(Alarm rings)
God-dammit, I'm tired of this!

(Verse 1)
I just want a life without the hangups,
I just want a job without the screwups,
I just want a relationship without the fuckups,
But they say it's like tryin' to eat the air, so
Fuck whomever first said "life ain't fair," yo.

(Chorus)
When am I gonna graduate and live a life that's free?
When am I gettin' outta this state to find a place for me?
When am I gonna fall in love and not fuck up again?
How am I gonna fit in, in this world
Run by barely normal men?

(Verse 2)
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me,
Gimme the free life (3x)
I don't need to explain that I have it good.
Southeast side's what I call my hood.
I function, act like a anybody should.
Pimpin' round the campus as hard as I could.
I asked "Come aboard?" Nobody would!
Is it 'cause I'm blue, not red?
Is that why you don't take me to bed?
Or is it 'cause I'm a nerd? Certified, bona fide arts geek.
Word!

I pull mad flow, but that ain't good enough?
I go like a gentleman, that's not the right stuff?
Fuck this, I'm done! You ain't gonna contemplate that
Maybe I'm the one!
Go on and fuck your football boyfriend, have his kid.
You'll wish in the end you never did what you did.
But you can't leave your QB, or it's skid row for you.
I see you goin', "Oh, D-Feld, I wish I'd married you!"
Well, TS, B! You can't have me! I gave you the chance,
No romance, no avail, so I ain't gonna lift your veil
And make you mine, so do it yourself!
Make your own life fine! Hey, yo!

(Chorus)
When am I gonna migrate to where I'm appreciated?
When am I gonna vault the gate into the
Life for which I'm fated?
When am I gonna? When am I gonna?!
When will I be held in high regard, though my
Morals, values, ethics be quite dated?

(Verse 3)
Fuck modern culture!
It's too simple for me.
I prefer what's not been eaten by the
Vultures of today's society.
Don't you go and open your hate-gate on me,
Complex though I be, at least I can see
Civilization's downfall brought on by apathy, mediocrity,
That's unsatisfactory!
And though I may be vintage, modern trials I can
Combat and pass, like Marshal Gram kickin' Vulcor's ass!
1873 beat 2552 one to nix. Same can apply in 2006,
Or any other year, so have no fears.
Wake your butts up and open up your ears!
For another dark age this land is itchin'.
Do somethin' now, or I'll just keep on bitchin'!

(Chorus)
When am I gonna get out of here?
I'm fuckin' sick of wastin' away here year after year!
When am I gonna blow this joint?
When are they ever gonna prove my point?

(Bridge)
Knock, knock! Jehovah's Witnesses!
Get the FUCK off my porch before I get my mob together
With pitchfork and torch!!!
Go bother someone else, go hit on Hooters waitresses,
Tell some other Joe Schmo what alleged God says!
Cause another 9/11, go to Heaven on Seven
And spend your money well,
But don't be surprised if St. Peter gives you Hell!
I think I got the gumption to
Bust some more rhymes after such an interruption.

(Verse 4)
Yeah, I like to read mysteries,
But it don't relate to my life.
I just wanna know, please, so save me all the strife.
Tell me, will I take a wife? Am I gonna get the
Gun or the knife? Or maybe illness or age kills me?
You don't know? Maybe I'll get my own TV show.
Or maybe a movie. Star in a flick. Or maybe be a Superstar with groupies suckin' on my dick.
Maybe I could go to jail. I could go on and on.
I just wanna know if my future's with the AlcAnon.
Or better or worse, at the moment I don't care!
I don't know the future. Why else would I be
Rippin' out my hair!
Fuck the surprises, I've got to know!
When will I get started, and when am I gonna go?
Run and tell this to Wikipedia, to the media,
Publish all my rants in an encyclopedia!

(Chorus)
Yo, when am I gonna settle in my niche?
Am I ever gonna be dealin' hashish out on the streets
Or crankin' some beats?
Mystery of life, I'm comin' for you!
When am I ever gonna play the boo
To a shorty who's true?
When am I ever gonna pull it outta the blue?

You wanna figure it out, too? Come and join my crew!
We'll figure it out with you.
