I'M SO BROKE
©2006 polar levine & rubio--sine language music/BMI

Ain’t no joke
For real I’m broke
I got a ways to go and no dough
Nothing to show
Up all night. Can’t sleep right. My head’s tight
Gotta buy food, clothes, books
And it looks like there’s holes in my shoes. What to do?
My credit card’s full and it’s due
No job, no time no reason, no rhyme
Gotta get it together before I’m a mess
Walk the line between ruin and success
I confess, no joke, for real, I’m broke

CHORUS: I’m so broke
I’m so broke
I’m so broke
I’m so broke

They signed me up for credit. I already regret it
Drove home with my Honda
Now the bank coming to get it
The fool from the bank knows just where I am
Gimme a ham and cheese
Waite a minute, hold the ham
Waiting on tables just to pay for the cable
And what’s left in my pocket goes to keep me off the docket
Credit’s a scam, led me on like a John
Just a tool for the con
Five grand poorer since the laste time we spoke
And it ain’t no joke
I’m so fucking broke

CHORUS: I’m so broke
I’m so broke
I’m so broke
I’m so broke
