{*Scratches by DJ Bonez*} "I'm makin moves kid" "Get greedy"
[Verse 1: Muph] One two now Two-minute noodles and a pair of chopsticks Tryna get a dollar off the floor of the moshpit And fossick through all these dirty pants pockets Lately, thinkin that maybe it doesn't pay to be honest Go ahead, take me to the office I'll be straight through the gate to the doctors All good, got what I wanted Sponsored by burn and I earnt my knowledge To be honest, at points I'm still strugglin Fridge with no food, booze isn't bubblin I'm in trouble again so come on my friend And lend me a hand out, don't just stand around While a man is down on his luck, stuck Couldn't get a bang out my buck And I'm just lappin it up, actin as if I'm happy as fuck Cause I am
{*Scratches*}
[Chorus: Paul Williamson] Just getting by, but smilin like I'm filthy rich In this life and time, dreamin of the finer things
[Verse 2: Muph] You see, we live limited but livin it well Breakin the perimeters? Guess time will tell Deprived of our innocence, got vinyl to sell No wife, no dinner set, better tighten the belt Hell, might as well be tellin the truth The way I see it, we ain't got a lot to lose Aside from friends, fam, independent views What we've got is a lot of units to move That's what has got me just losin my screws Late payin the rent, another useless excuse Like Cujo, know that I'm ruthless with food Watch TV through PC on YouTube I could really do with a pair of new shoes Some phone credit, I don't need your bluetooth I'm too smooth, how I manage to cruise through And get to the top of game with low loot, true

[Chorus: Paul Williamson] Just getting by, but smilin like I'm filthy rich In this life and time, dreamin of the finer things Just getting by, but smilin like I'm filthy rich In this of mine, I'm dreamin of the finer things
