E Town Concrete - "A Setup" lyrics
*** Complimentary A Setup Ringtone ***
Johnny never went to college.
He couldn't afford the fee.
He got lucky; he had an uncle who worked for NBC.
Now Johnny's taking for people,
who shop from the TV-mostly wealthy housewives who buy expensive jewerly.
"It's a setup, keep you down.
They set up you, then knock you"
Johnny got laid-off, his job sent overseas.
He made about 50 bucks day, his replacement-$3.
My mother never had much money; my grades were never all that great.
He couldn't afford the fee.
He got lucky; he had an uncle who worked for NBC.
Now Johnny's taking for people,
who shop from the TV-mostly wealthy housewives who buy expensive jewerly.
"It's a setup, keep you down.
They set up you, then knock you"
Johnny got laid-off, his job sent overseas.
He made about 50 bucks day, his replacement-$3.
My mother never had much money; my grades were never all that great.
And how fuck the am I supposed to earn when,
good jobs want a college degree'
Seven bucks an hour, what kind of future does that leave for me'!
So how fuck am I supposed to learn if eduation cost more than I make'
"It's a setup, keep you down.
They set up you, then knock you"(2x)
Johnny's is going through some tough times,
and barely making both ends meet.
Johnny's feeling desperate.
He's got kids to feed.
He can't find a jod on account of the economy.
So the day I met Johnny, he robbing me.
good jobs want a college degree'
Seven bucks an hour, what kind of future does that leave for me'!
So how fuck am I supposed to learn if eduation cost more than I make'
"It's a setup, keep you down.
They set up you, then knock you"(2x)
Johnny's is going through some tough times,
and barely making both ends meet.
Johnny's feeling desperate.
He's got kids to feed.
He can't find a jod on account of the economy.
So the day I met Johnny, he robbing me.
