Can't afford to eat cause I got no money
And my check comes late next week
I'm so sick of paying bills
And I'm tired of taking heat
I'm all worn down to the bone
And my car don't got no gas
And I can't get around by bus
Cause I can't afford the pass
And it's hard enough to say
That you can make it through the day
And it's hard enough to prove
That there is something left of you
When you've slaved away the day
In the name of all that's evil on the Earth
Oh, what's it worth?
Can't afford a date, can't afford a girl
So I spend time with my hand
I wish that I did something
That would put me in demand
Spend my time writing tunes
Just holed up in my room
It goes on and on and on and on
And I don't know what to do
And it's hard enough to say
That you can make it through the day
And it's hard enough to prove
That there is something left of you
When you've slaved away the day
In the name of all that's evil on the Earth
Oh, what's it worth?
Is this the only life that I am gonna live?
I am so lonely, I wonder what's gonna give
Where did I go astray?
Can't afford a drink so today I'm sober
But I don't really mind
The way I was going I was pretty sure
That I'd end up doing time
But it's hard enough to say
That you can make it through the day
And it's hard enough to prove
That there is something left of you
When you've slaved away the day
In the name of all that's evil on the Earth
Oh, what's it worth?
