On the other hand supply and demand could fill the corners off a late night It's that suffering bestowed upon us by that great white Not Columbus but Colombians Cause ain't no coca leaves growing in the District Of Columbia, so the rut we in Got to be the best example of some pimp shit Hit the strip, nigga, get that money and bring it back to daddy Our forefathers been giving us the shaft Back lash of a whip, to them whips like the back of Caddies But we don't give a fuck cause we gettin cash, exactly [Hook: x2] This is everything you want, it's everything you need This is good old fashioned American greed See we get it how we get it and we spend it how we spend it Cause it's good old fashioned American greed [Verse 2:] I want that dollar, but when I got it it's not enough Fucking forget it, you think I'm quittin, you out of luck Cause I'm addicted to picket fences and getting profit Fuck penny pinching and pissy pensions amount to what?
