One Dollar Wonder

[Intro]
Yeah yeah
One-two, one-two
Now everybody say
I got a dollar, I got a dollar
I got a dollar, hey hey hey hey
I got a dollar, I got a dollar
I got a dollar hey, hey

[Chorus]
It goes One Dollar Wonder (one dollar wonder)
Looking for the one dollar deal
Don't you know that one is the magic number
(so I run with the one dollar bill)
One Dollar Wonder (one dollar wonder)
Looking for the one dollar deal
Don't you know that one is the magic number
(so I run with the one dollar bill)

[Verse 1]
Yo, I never had a Franklin
Ill with the dollar bill anklet
Roll 'em up like pigs in a blanket
Call it budget-banking
I don't got a goddamn thing but the pocket full of change that I came with, damn
Silly but I really can't stop
All I think about is money that I ain't got
If I had another dollar bill, I could afford a beer
That's why I'm feeling down, I wish George was here
Take a look at the account statement
Got a piggy bank, but ain't bringing home bacon
Still belly-achin'
Pockets so flat, when I buy a dime sack it's in 10 small payments
Step into the store on the corner
Looking at the menu for the one dollar order
I could get a soda pop, or a pack of bubble gum
Used to have two but I let Comm Sense borrow the other one
Ask for change from the fella in the store
Leanin' over the counter, drop my dollar on the floor
He goes for the dollar, I go for the draw
And now the One Dollar Wonder got a hundred dollars more

[Pre-Chorus]
That's the life of the Wonder
Keep it low pro then strike on the under
Always outnumbered, never outdone
Cuz time is money and Cunning ain't getting younger son, it goes one!
I'm saying man
Fools be like 'Richie you wanna go in on a sack?'
Fuck I'm supposed to say, man?
'I got one on it' - fuck outta here

[Chorus]
It goes One Dollar Wonder (one dollar wonder)
Looking for the one dollar deal
Don't you know that one is the magic number
(so I run with the one dollar bill)
One Dollar Wonder (one dollar wonder)
Looking for the one dollar deal
Don't you know that one is the magic number
(so I run with the one dollar bill)

[Verse 2]
My thermostat broken, rooftop leaking
Know there's more money, I just don't know where they keep it
Shit is top secret
My only scheme is a dollar and dream, so I keep sleepin'
See it ain't no reason for me to be job-seekin'
Got a resume full of moppin' and sweepin'
Somebody said 'Money talks'
Yeah? then why that old bitch giving me the silent treatment? (bitch!)
I keep my palms in my pocket
Cuz seeing the future don't make me a prophet
I be sitting on the night train with my homie Grip Grand
Kickin' it with a one-way ticket to Brokeland
Never ever get past it
Digging in my wallet, no paper or plastic
But thanks for asking
Shit, I ain't nothing but a block-droopin', brake-lubin', broke-ass bastard
I don't even got a bone to pick
My only possession is when I'm on stage and I own this shit
It's my mic, when I'm done, I slap the chain on it
Then I bounce like a two dollar check with my name on it

[Pre-Chorus]
That's the life of the Wonder
Keep it low pro then strike on the under
Always outnumbered, never outdone
Cuz time is money and Cunning ain't getting younger son, it goes one!
Man, shut your ass up talkin' bout 'money changes people'
I wish money would change me
Change me into a pair of new sneakers or something like that

[Chorus]
It goes One Dollar Wonder (one dollar wonder)
Looking for the one dollar deal
Don't you know that one is the magic number
(so I run with the one dollar bill)
One Dollar Wonder (one dollar wonder)
Looking for the one dollar deal
Don't you know that one is the magic number
(so I run with the one dollar bill)
