E-Town Concrete - A Setup Lyrics
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.So how ***** am I supposed to learn if eduation cost more than I make?And how ***** 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?!"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.He can't find a jod on account of the economy.Johnny's feeling desperate.He's got kids to feed.So the day I met Johnny, he robbing me.
