INTRO verse 1 Stop the bus, I wanna be lonely When seconds pass slowly and years go flying by You gotta stop the bus and get off here Enough's enough and I'm leaving this factory All she wants is food on the table And I won't be able to bring it home And all I want, come on 'Cause all I need, Yeah it's free 'Cause I'm a factory Did Mother Nature tell you "Boy, you come and go as you please?" That's what she said to me But big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery Woah Woah Woah Woah verse 2 Millionaires and mill rats live side by side Messed up my brother's mind He's far from earth, tell me, what's it worth? The same as you, the same as me In this factory Did Mother Nature tell you "Boy, you come and go as you please?" That's what she said to me But big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery Woah Woah Woah Woah BRIDGE It's 4 in the morning Mother don't know that I'm going far away (x4) She's whispering to the moon, "I hope he don't join you soon" Baby boss climbs up on his soapbox Great Caesar's ghost knows what's best for me He says stop the bus OUTRO Did Mother Nature tell you "Boy, you come and go as you please?" That's what she said to me But big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery But big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery But big brother got the keys and I got Jackson Cannery
