Beck - Mexico lyrics
[Beck - Mexico lyrics]
Come gather 'round me people
Here's a story you never heard
'Bout me and my friends and
Some shit that occured
We thought we'd take a trip
We thought that we would go
Spend a weekend pleasant down in Mexico
Well I was workin' at McDonald's
Doin' the late night run
When a car pulled up the drive-thru
And pointed out a gun
Said, "Give us all your money
And three Big Macs to go"
I stuffed them all in a bag
And I ducked down below
Well the boss got angry when he found
Out I didn't call the police
I guess I was kinda nervous
There was a warrant out on me
Concerning some jaywalking tickets
I couldn't afford to pay
Needless to say, I got the axe that same day
Well me bein' out of work just then
I didn't want to go home
My mom said if I lost this job
I'd have to go out on my own
So I went over to Dave's house
And got really stoned
Called up some girls but none
Of them were home
Well, Steve came over and
He brought some alcohol
We're all gettin' really depressed just
Starin' at the wall
Well we thought we'd get some money
We thought that we might go
Spend a weekend pleasant down in Mexico
Steve's dad had a huntin' rifle and
We went and picked it up we went
Stopped into the 7-11 to try our luck
We raised up that huntin' rifle
But the counter guy just laughed
As he pulled out an uzi
We turned and hauled ass
We were runnin' so fast till we came
To the McDonald's where I worked
We walked up to the drive-thru and
Gave my boss a jerk
Said, "Give us all your money
And three Big Macs to go
And suck on this you weasel
We're goin' to Mexico"
We all got really wasted down south
Dave got a case of the runs
We're all really hungover and
Gettin' low on funds
Dave and Steve called their parents
And took the bus back home
Me, I got a job at McDonald's down in Mexico
Here's a story you never heard
'Bout me and my friends and
Some shit that occured
We thought we'd take a trip
We thought that we would go
Spend a weekend pleasant down in Mexico
Well I was workin' at McDonald's
Doin' the late night run
When a car pulled up the drive-thru
And pointed out a gun
Said, "Give us all your money
And three Big Macs to go"
I stuffed them all in a bag
And I ducked down below
Well the boss got angry when he found
Out I didn't call the police
I guess I was kinda nervous

Concerning some jaywalking tickets

Needless to say, I got the axe that same day
Well me bein' out of work just then
