It's wet and cold But the world is run on gold So you'd betta get out of the door And work your *** off And at the end of the day You'd be disappointed at your pay What you get isn't what you expect Plain dough is all that you collect "It's not even enough for dope!" You take it up with your boss "Listen, kid. You gotta be patient. I guarantee one day you'll own gold, maybe when you get to this old like me. But not now, kid, not now." That's what he told.
