Can'tneverdidnothin'
And neither did couldn't
Never did nobody no good
You better plant in your garden
And make sure you water it like you should
Time has spoiled you rotten
And you done forgotten
Why you been put here
Can'tneverdidnothin'
And neither did couldn't
But make your dreams disappear
Blaming everybody who dealt your hand
But you're keepin' your head in the sand
You should be sweatin while you sit at home
Looking under your bed for your backbone
Instead you ridin' bitch till the tables turn
Till you get your check
Till your luck returns
How are you expecting to find your way
With shoulda woulda coulda coming out your face
Can'tneverdidnothin'
And neither did couldn't
Never did nobody no good
You better plant in your garden
And make sure you water it like you should
Time has spoiled you rotten
And you done forgotten
Why you been put here
Can'tneverdidnothin'
And neither did couldn't
But make your dreams disappear
You keep ridin' your bike in a cul-de-sac
Think you're getting somewhere ridin' piggyback
But you're only gettin' out what you're puttin' in
So stick your neck out take it on the chin
'Cause there's a whole lotta nothin' goin' on for too long
'Cause the time isn't right
'Cause it feels all wrong
Wishin' like a baby you could just get on
But ain't nothin' doin' while nothin's done
And neither did couldn't
Never did nobody no good
You better plant in your garden
And make sure you water it like you should
Time has spoiled you rotten
And you done forgotten
Why you been put here
Can'tneverdidnothin'
And neither did couldn't
But make your dreams disappear
Blaming everybody who dealt your hand
But you're keepin' your head in the sand
You should be sweatin while you sit at home
Looking under your bed for your backbone
Instead you ridin' bitch till the tables turn
Till you get your check
Till your luck returns
How are you expecting to find your way
With shoulda woulda coulda coming out your face
Can'tneverdidnothin'
And neither did couldn't
Never did nobody no good
You better plant in your garden
And make sure you water it like you should
Time has spoiled you rotten
And you done forgotten
Why you been put here
Can'tneverdidnothin'
And neither did couldn't
But make your dreams disappear
You keep ridin' your bike in a cul-de-sac
Think you're getting somewhere ridin' piggyback
But you're only gettin' out what you're puttin' in
So stick your neck out take it on the chin
'Cause there's a whole lotta nothin' goin' on for too long
'Cause the time isn't right
'Cause it feels all wrong
Wishin' like a baby you could just get on
But ain't nothin' doin' while nothin's done
