Assassin Hand To Mouth
[Intro:]
Pay check, check, check, check, check
Well it's another one
Me just get me pay check
And me ah wait fi the other one
Versatyle, Agent Sasco,

[Chorus:]
Hand to mouth,
As me get the money it done
And it feel like next month end nah go come
As me get the money it done, it done, it done, it done
Hand to mouth...
[Verse 1:]
Me get pay pon friday and by saturday
Os like me don't know where that deh
But nuh feel say me squander me money
Me work too hard fi it fi tek it and dash weh
Ah long time me nuh safe
Gone are the days
When me coulda have a thing stash weh
Me lose big out ah track monday so me nah go back deh
Me haffi try something else
Get me pay me pray fi Jah bless it
All kinda way me try stretch it
Me try pick three but me never yet catch it
All the lotto me haffi lef it
And I don't wah break the law
One ah me friend tell me fi try corner but
The same week when me get the draw
Me hand gone back ah me jaw
[Chorus:]
Hand to mouth,
As me get the money it done
And it feel like next month end nah go come
As me get the money it done, it done, it done, it done
Hand to mouth...
[Verse 2:]
Last night was a forthnight
And likkle mousey hear say
Me and the boss fight
About six week wages him owe me
And come ah tell man story
But story can't put food pon me table
Story can't put on back me cable
So bossman keep your fable
You know say me life unstable
Hear me nuh
Me owe one months rent and me haffi pay half
Me couldn't pay light so that haffi stay off
Me have whole heap more bills fi clear off
The six week thing just throw me way off
Lord me pray me nuh get laid off (woii)
Cause if me get laid off
Me coulda try theif
And end up inna prison like Bernard Madoff
[Chorus:]
Hand to mouth,
As me get the money it done
And it feel like next month end nah go come
As me get the money it done, it done, it done, it done
Hand to mouth...
[Verse 3:]
Granny say,
How I fi walk down a front end
But me wah ask you something
Ah weh the money walk gone
When ah month end
Me wah some tire and me wah fix me front end
Water commission dem tek me fi fool
How me bill heavy so and me nah have pool
Lord between this and the light bill
The youth dem cya go ah school
[Chorus:]
Hand to mouth,
As me get the money it done
And it feel like next month end nah go come
As me get the money it done, it done, it done, it done
[Outro:]
Hand to mouth,
As me get the money it done
And it feel like next month end nah go come
As me get the money it done, it done, it done, it done
Hand to mouth...
