I make $4.25

barely enough to stay alive

and it sucks making minimum wage

the same as people half my age

my brain is turning into crud

and my name might as well be mud

what self-respect i had was lost

when I call a primate boss

$4.25

over 40 zillion served

and still you say what i deserve

are the few dollars that i make

with all the profit you take

and I'm just another soldier

in the army without a face

and who cares how I feel

cause i can easily be replaced

$4.25

The next time you eat at a burger joint

just stop and think

about the money they're makin

for the shit they're takin

and just how much it stinks

Someone with an attitude comes along

and says "these pickles don't belong"

"no sauce" "no onions" "easy on the mayo"

drivin me buggy have me singin dayo

dayayo

woman want cheeseburger, but she don't want no cheese

$4.25

I have a dream and here's how it goes

one day we'll all bond together

and the young and the old and the mentally slow

won't work another day ever

and then Ronald and Jack, the King and Wendy too

will be the one's saying "May I help you?"

Hope to see that day

when I'm alive

but for now I'm makin

$4.25
