LYRICS:

I don't wanna work too hard,
for somethin' that might not work out,
I don't wanna work too hard
Too hard, too hard, been too hard.

I ain't gonna tell nobody,
What I'm really goin' for,
I ain't gonna tell nobody
What th-th-this l-livin' for
Livin's for, Livin's for

I know it all is fleeting,
This too shall pass, I know,
All the papers, papers bleeding,
Reading s-s-stiff as a mannequin pose,
a mannequin pose, a mannequin pose..you posin'

They want me to d-deny my outs and in-betweens,
But it's clearly wrong to write 'bout the bitch
runnin' circles 'round your A to B's,
Your A to B's...bitch please

I don't wanna work too hard,
for somethin' that might not work out,
I don't wanna work too hard
Too hard, too hard, been too hard.

I ain't gonna tell nobody,
What I'm really goin' for,
I ain't gonna tell nobody
What th-th-this l-livin' for
Livin's for, Livin's for

Your columns don't impress me,
They all just politics
Take to the streets,
Don't nobody care about your Twitter hits,
Hit, hit, hit
It's 3 strikes, c'mon you know you out
Everybody round me tradin' faces,
Ruinin' places,
Now I don't go out,
I ain't goin' out..AIn't nothin' to this town

Egos and egos ago,
We had a promise to uphold,
But they losin' they youth
To the pirates gold in they tooth,
Chomp, chomp, chomp on that,
As I'm packin' my bags,
'Cause it's feelin' stiff...s-s-stiff as a fucking mannequin
A mannequin, a mannequin

I don't wanna work too hard,
for somethin' that might not work out,
I don't wanna work too hard
Too hard, too hard, been too hard.

I ain't gonna tell nobody,
What I'm really goin' for,
I ain't gonna tell nobody
What th-th-this l-livin' for
Livin's for, Livin's for
