Lyrics
Alright, check it out. First of the month.
Pockets are full of lint, but the EBT card? It's loaded.
Time to go face the final boss... the goddamn supermarket checkout lane.
Let's go!
(Verse 1)
Got my plastic from the state, gonna seal my hungry fate
Push my wobbly cart with pride, there's nowhere left for me to hide
Aisle 5 is full of chips, salty powder on my lips
Aisle 7, frozen crap, corporate-sponsored heart attack!
See the steaks behind the glass, this welfare check is gonna last!
Gonna eat like a damn king, don't you tell me anything!
(Pre-Chorus)
Pile the cart up to the sky!
T-bones, soda, Boston cream pie!
The lady behind me is giving me stares
Like I'm stealing her fucking stock shares!
(Chorus)
THIS ISN'T FREEDOM,
THIS IS A FUCKING TEST!
GOVERNMENT CHEESE IS PUTTING ME TO THE TEST!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - Can't buy what I need!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - Planting a bitter seed!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - EBT CONTEMPT!
FROM COMMON SENSE, THIS PROGRAM IS EXEMPT!
(Verse 2)
Roll up to the checkout stand, card is shaking in my hand
Beep, boop, beep, the numbers climb, havin' a real good time!
Then the cashier, "Karen," sighs, with dead and condescending eyes
"Sir, I'm sorry, you can't get that, it's prepared and hot and fat!"
"That rotisserie chicken's a crime, gotta buy it cold next time!"
"And that toilet paper roll? It ain't food, bless your soul!"
(Pre-Chorus)
The line is getting longer now!
Sweat is dripping from my brow!
They're all looking, they all know!
Time for the big shit-show!
(Chorus)
THIS ISN'T FREEDOM,
THIS IS A FUCKING TEST!
GOVERNMENT CHEESE IS PUTTING ME TO THE TEST!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - Can't buy what I need!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - Planting a bitter seed!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - EBT CONTEMPT!
FROM COMMON SENSE, THIS PROGRAM IS EXEMPT!
(Bridge)
So let me get this straight, you pencil-pushing piece of shit.
I can buy a two-pound bag of Skittles that'll rot my teeth out.
I can buy a twenty-dollar lobster tail... from MAINE!
I can buy a family-size box of DiGiorno's pizza that tastes like cardboard ass...
BUT I CAN'T BUY A FUCKING BAR OF SOAP TO WASH MY HANDS?!
I CAN BUY KING CRAB LEGS BUT I CAN'T BUY A ROLL OF FUCKING BRAWNY TO CLEAN UP THE MESS?!
WHAT KIND OF BACKWARDS-ASS, DUMB-FUCK SYSTEM IS THIS?! HUH?!
(Guitar Solo)
(Chorus)
THIS ISN'T FREEDOM,
THIS IS A FUCKING TEST!
GOVERNMENT CHEESE IS PUTTING ME TO THE TEST!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - Can't buy what I need!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - Planting a bitter seed!
DICTATED AGGRESSION! - EBT CONTEMPT!
FROM COMMON SENSE, THIS PROGRAM IS EXEMPT!
(Outro)
NO SOAP! NO SUDS! NO BEER! NO BUDS!
NO WINDEX! NO NAPKINS! WHAT THE FUCK'S HAPPENIN'?!
DICTATED! AGGRESSION!
DICTATED! AGGRESSION! (
FUCK THIS! I'm goin' to McDonald's!
