Richard’s Got A Job

[Spoken intro: OK, whenever you're ready
(Replies) I'm ready, fuck!]

This is a song about a friend of mine something good happened to
This is also a song about the economy something bad happened to

Got a little news and for once it was good
Chin up all the boys in the neighborhood
Yeah, cheers us all up, make no mistake
When one of our buddies gets a break

Richard got a job
Richard got employed
You can tell by the way he walks he's overjoyed
Richard got a gig
Whoo baby! This is big
Ain't it cool when the universe gives you stuff you dig?

Ain't real great just hanging around
Idle hands are the devil's playground
Time not workin' can mess with your head
Tryin' to find a reason to get your butt out of bed

Richard got a job
Richard got employed
You can tell by the way he walks he's overjoyed
Richard got a gig
Whoo baby! This is big
Ain't it cool when the universe gives you stuff you dig?

You got bills to pay
You need food to eat
Maybe check out a coeur
Ain't that a treat?
Buy your friends a cup of joe
Catch a movie or two
Ain't it a stone cold bitch what the country's goin' through?

But Richard got a job
Richard got employed
You can tell by the way he walks he's overjoyed
Richard got a gig
Whoo baby! This is big
Ain't it cool when the universe gives you stuff you dig?

[Spoken]
You know it's just part time
But he's doing really well and I think they're gonna give him extra hours
Yeah
