The Dwp

Well I came outta Christmas broke
And wondering why
Every year we squeeze out the cheese
Why'd I have to go in debt to say how much I love you
I coulda shown it more through the year
Now you got a pair of sneakers half an inch too big
I'm lookin' at my wallet and cryin'
Yet all the world will get together over this jig
Because it's proper and a comfortable life

I got a little bonus and it's nothin' to brag
From somebody more well off than me
It's apparent in society to show how much I love you is by participating in the schemes
Thought I'd use up all that bonus just to pay off some bills
Now wouldn't you like do the same?
But all the world will get together over this thrill
Oh ain't it funny it ain't money to blame?

Hell it ain't like me to be a cheap SOB
But only if I like you a lot
Outta money aw rats
Just me and my cats
And a reminder from the DWP

December rolled around and I'm stuck in California
Where the cost of living is high
I don't know what's made my home so greedy and so mucky
With the holidays and rent on the rise
Every year the pressure on me doubles the push
I know I'm not alone in the grind
And all the world will get together over this mush
I'm talkin' 'bout a means to survive

Hell it ain't like me to be a cheap SOB
But only if I like you a lot
Outta money aw rats
Just me and my cats
And a reminder from the DWP

Outta money aw rats
Just me and my cats
And a reminder from the DWP
I'm outta money aw rats
Just me and my cats
And a reminder from the DWP
