Foster The People - Life On The Nickel Lyrics
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]But I can't seem to catch a dimeTake a little hit and I lose the timeI took the man and his horseAnd ran before he looked upI said the light's gonna changeBut I'm calm and feeling warmAnd now I'm sticking out my handsAnd feeling weightless againYou got to push, got to shove I've got to eat before they eat meGot the crown and the cupI've got to write to my familyAnd say, "I'm calm and feeling warm."I'm not quite there, but I'm closeAnd it's a world of a differenceYet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]But I can't seem to catch a dimeTake a little hit and I lose the timeI've got the worst all behind meYeah they'll never be able to find meI'm the king of the cityI'm a roach and they're all primatesThis is meal timeReal lifeI'm not gonna fightNo, I'm gonna start a warI've been rightI've been wrongMy smokes have come and goneI've been crazyBeen fed enough to not wind up deadAnd I'm lonelyMy eyes have been closed to the world'Cause the world's got nothing for meYet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]But I can't seem to catch a dimeTake a little hit and I lose the timeYet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]But I can't seem to catch a dimeTake a little hit and I lose the timeYet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling [x3]
