lyrics

Hey Mister Landlord
Whaddya say?
Y'know my rent's
Too high to pay

He says "That's fine
if you're comin' up short
I'll just see you
In eviction court."

Fuck'em if they can't take a joke

Hey pretty girly
Are ya goin' my way?
How's about
Comin' over to play?

She says "You're cute
Why doncha buy me a beer?"
Then she struts off
'Cause she ain't even queer

Fuck'em if they can't take a joke

All these goddamn people
Demanding so much of me
They think I've gotta helluva nerve
But I just gotta stay free

Y'know life is a banquet
And most poor suckers, they're starvin' to death
But I just wanna live, live, live
And keep laughing 'til my last breath

Hey there boss
How do ya do?
Y'know I ain't comin' in
'Til quarter past two

He says "If you can't
Make it in on time
Why doncha go stand in
The unemployment line?"

Fuck'em if they can't take a joke
Fuck'em if they can't take a joke
Fuck'em if they can't take a joke
