You can trust me!
(Everybody knows)
About my honesty
(Everybody knows)
Honesty
I’m entwined behind the assembly line
I’m resigned to the daily grind
I walked to work, too wild, sick and tired
And if I don’t get on time, I get fired
I can't afford no crime my records hot
Gotta do over time I like it as not now
I was raised to be straighten, and no apology
For honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
Another day another dollar as the foreman starts to holla’
As the siren screams and releases the blue-collar
I watch the clock, tick tock, mock me
On a conveyor belt, I stock the boxes higher
I survive a nine to five
For the sound down tools when the time arrives
Beware, and my boss is too square
He hates the smoke take a toke if you dare
I'd rather be with my baby
Collecting all my paycheck have a beer and then a maybe
Driven to scraping a living but no apology
For honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
Slaving, craving friday night raving
Another week of work to eat away at my savings
Factory fodder, why do I bother
As I financially hover
Over a fiscal precipice
Don’t know where the edge it is
Playing pool like a fool but I know
I never is the winner
I begin a brand new day
I’m slaving away in some kind of robotic relay say
Labour, power, pay me by the hour
Servant to the system but I got no union power
I cannot bend to a bent philosophy
Or my honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
I watch my back in the bar
Because I know who's who
I'll never cause no trouble ‘cause I know it'll never do
I ain't got no crew to back up
So Imma stuck up my brews real calm
Don't get a hang-up
Couldn't harm a fly. So why try a guy?
I be clocking the hours until the day that I die
‘Cause I was straight-straighten, no apology for honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
(Everybody knows)
‘bout my honesty
Trust me
Wake up, I gotta go
