We're in the basement
Learning to print, all of it's hot
10-20-30 million ready to be spent
We're stackin' 'em against the wall
Those gangster presidents
Livin' simple and trying to get by
But honey, prices have shot through the sky
So I fixed up the basement with what I was a-workin' with
Stocked it full of jelly jars and heavy equipment
We're in the basement
10-20-30 million dollars, ready to be spent
Walk into the bank, try to pass that trash
Teller sees and says, "Uh-huh, that's fresh as grass"
See the street pass under your feet
In time to buy the latest model getaway Jeep
So I fixed up the basement
With what I was a-workin' with
Stocked it full of jelly jars and heavy equipment
We're in the basement
So I fixed up the basement
With what I was a-workin' with
Stocked it full of jelly jars and heavy equipment
We're in the basement
Learning to print, all of it's hot, all counterfeit
Learning to print, all of it's hot
10-20-30 million ready to be spent
We're stackin' 'em against the wall
Those gangster presidents
Livin' simple and trying to get by
But honey, prices have shot through the sky
So I fixed up the basement with what I was a-workin' with
Stocked it full of jelly jars and heavy equipment
We're in the basement
10-20-30 million dollars, ready to be spent
Walk into the bank, try to pass that trash
Teller sees and says, "Uh-huh, that's fresh as grass"
See the street pass under your feet
In time to buy the latest model getaway Jeep
So I fixed up the basement
With what I was a-workin' with
Stocked it full of jelly jars and heavy equipment
We're in the basement
So I fixed up the basement
With what I was a-workin' with
Stocked it full of jelly jars and heavy equipment
We're in the basement
Learning to print, all of it's hot, all counterfeit
