Boss man sez 
 
I gots ta pay my dues
 
(thump thump thump)
 
With the mob on my case,
 
I cain't see how I can refuse




And though you're thinkin', baby
 
That it's only a ruse
 
And though you're thinkin', baby
 
That I've lost my muse
 
And though you're thinkin', baby
 
That I'se exclaimin' "J'accuse"
 
(while reading Spinoza)


 
 
It don't make no difference, naw sahhhhhhhhh. . .

I ain't got no time. . . to. . . loooooooooose!
