Strong As An Oak
Chorus
Everything is A-OK
Because Im strong as an O-A-K (Oak!)
But money dont grow on trees (nope)
And Im B-R-O-K-E (Broke!)
Verse 1
Them rims them rings them things, you can bring em out
I just had my debit card declined at in N out
The line is flipping out. Giving me evil eyes
**** the soda , re-run it with just the cheesy fries
cause i dont think money is THE devil
Im not sinking, im just kicking it at sea level
I got my floaties on
Im focusing on all the wonderful stuff with the force of Obi Wan
Kenobi Bro, Im broke although I wont be woebegone
Cause even though my bank account is low or overdrawn
Im down to mow yer lawn
Im getting open Im soaking up every moment and so we
should make a toast we wont be sober til the broke of dawn
because beer is cheap
and because love is free
Im buzzin feeling like every friend is a cousin, G
And someday well be reminiscing on some wasnt we
Just so down and out
But we were happy then (cause)
Chorus
Verse 2
why should I sit on my ass on the couch and be asking why life isnt equal?
with lesser possessions Im light as a feather and so I can fly like an eagle
Cause everyone dies and I wonder why leaders in power would lie to their people
be planning like they could be fitting a camel up into the eye of a needle
but dammit Id i settle for fitting a 94 Camry inside of my driveway
im sick of the image Im living my life and i'm doing in my way
Id rather be making the choices Im proud of than chasing a mountain of money
But if that mountain comes to me, Im climbing it
Gotta a brick and Im laying it down
got a shovel, Im breaking this ground
because Im in red
but its only a color that I will be painting this town
Because when I make it then I dedicate it to friends I stayed with who would do me favors even lend me paper when I couldnt pay for a little takeout
to the fact
that whatever you think that it means
I be here and Im living my dreams
And its cause of the people I leaned
on when I came apart at the seams
So gimme the moon
And gimme the spoon
Im licking it clean
Until there just aint nothing left
But who will lend a hand
