[Wax, Dumbfoundead - Playground lyrics]
Goddamn, man, can you believe I got
Two parking tickets today?
Man, that's some bullshit
I just got a ticket for using the
Phone while driving
And I was just trying to pay off
My parking tickets through the phone, man
Aw, that sucks
Remember back in the day when we didn't
Have to worry about shit like that?
Yeah man, the only tickets I was
Worrying about was lunch tickets
You know what I'm sayin'?
Yo, ha, yo ice cream trucks and
Saturday morning cartoons
Staring at the calendar
Hoping summer would start soon
Lunch tickets, forty ounces
Missing class, chasing chicks
Going to the nurse's office just so
I could take a shit
Petty theft, dine and ditching
Runnin' from that Denny's check
Yo mama's so fat, just fill in the blank
Jenny Craig flamin' hot Cheetos
Wilin' out on that LA shit
Damn, I was worse than
The motherfucking Bebe's kids
Treated this world like my personal sand lot
Then sooner or later started
Workin' a damn job
Can't stop, won't stop, turned into last stop
I couldn't pay bills with the
Earning of mad props
Back in the day when I was young
I ain't a kid anymore
Practically used up all my energy source
Why the hell do kids wanna grow up so fast?
(Why?)
Nobody told me being grown up's so ass
Before the jobs before the bills
Before the stress before my life turned into
A complicated mess, i used to
Sit back, live day to day
The future just seemed so far away
We was chasing girls and smoking weed
Ain't that the way it's supposed to be? Hey
The world was a playground
Damn, I miss those days now
Yo, I used to roll around town
In a fucked up van
Me and my crew smoking weed
Out a crushed up can
We'd have a bunch of forty ounces
That my boy's older brother bought
Usually Mickey's but maybe some
Type of other malt
We never had no place to be
We would drive around all night aimlessly
Maybe stop in a random parking
Lot for a second
Holler at some hoes just to get rejected
But when we did it
We would tell 'em all, "Get in
My mom's van's big enough for
All y'all to fit in"
Now we nine deep, rollin'
Down the side street, cruisin'
Lookin' for a spot to park and keep boozin'
Sit and chatter 'bout shit that didn't matter
Drink more beer
Girls didn't care about your career
In the minivan, parked on the shoulder
We used to say we couldn't wait to get older
Before the jobs before the bills
Before the stress before my life turned into
A complicated mess, i used to
Sit back, live day to day
The future just seemed so far away
We was chasing girls and smoking weed
Ain't that the way it's supposed to be? Hey
The world was a playground
Damn, I miss those days now
I could never get shit with my fake ID
'Cause, I'm not 35 and I ain't Chinese
Shoplifting at the mini mart
Tricky part's to rip apart the
Sticker off the liquor jar
I'll just take a Snicker bar
I used to kick it in
The woods eatin' mushroom caps
Remember beatin' on the table
Spittin' lunchroom raps
Sneakin' out, late night
Tryna go get some ass
At the homie's garage instead
Of going to class
Waitin' in line at the club
No guest list love just five on the dub
And the rest on Funyuns
As a youngin, I was so alive and energetic
Now I'm pathetic you said it I don't do not
Two parking tickets today?
Man, that's some bullshit
I just got a ticket for using the
Phone while driving
And I was just trying to pay off
My parking tickets through the phone, man
Aw, that sucks
