Fishbone - HouseworkLyrics

I feel like I go to work everyday But where I work I don't get paid Work in school and learnin' the supposed rule But in the street I make my own rules Mama, she just wanted me to do my homework But when I get home Ma left a note Do the housework So when I'm done with my chores I go outside and learn some more Out in the street I got friends just like me Pops is gone and mom's workin' 5 and 6 days a week Me and my partners tryin' things just to see what it means A drink here and a smoke there, what was dirty now is clean Mama tryin' but we got to survive So now I got to get a 9 to 5 Do the housework... Ouch !!!
