9. pop and pock *
and so we couldn't stop shopping
ay yo i gotta get dressed
if i keep on poppin' these locks of mine
and now i'm suffering less
and some identity thief
is straight killing my dreams
but yo i gotta get dressed
you go on and live the low
and look up to me
na na na na na na na na
they take a bite off the meantime
but you're right
i should have chewed the rest up
instead of spitting it out
and they said to keep shopping
and i'll get it for less
and i can keep on poppin' these locks of mine
and now i'm getting a loan
and straight killing the time
but now i gotta get dressed
and some identity thief is
straight killing my dreams
na na na na na na na na
behind every god is a romance
but you're right
i should have known
the end is damned
and it's done
