Chips Down (In No Landfill) by Cody Chessnutt

|
Something around me tells me
|
That there’s more to this prize than the dime has shown me
|
Waitin' on a paycheck--
|
But isn’t every day the payment?
|
Well I think so, I, I think so...
|
|
Imprisoned men and women can be reformed if they are around human beings
|
That don’t treat them like, don’t treat them like a disposable part of the dream.
|
|
My questions, my answer,
|
My pension, my cancer,
|
My title, my trophy,
|
My theories of the market-based strategies,
|
My schedule, my time piece, my competition and salary
|
My outdated, overpriced fake ID
|
|
I...sold my radio!
|
I...hawked my television!
|
I...sold my radio!
|
I...threw my silicon chips down
|
In no landfill
|
Just walked away
|
So that I could heal
|
So that I could heal
|
Threw my silicon chips down
|
|
Why have we gathered around this here table?!
|
Does anybody know?
|
We’ve been waiting a long time
|
What kind of customer service do you expect from a harlot host?
|
|
Oh my questions, my answer,
|
My pension, my cancer,
|
My title, my trophy,
|
My theories of the market-based strategies,
|
My schedule, my timepiece,
|
my trendy pen and salary,
|
my trust fund, remote controls,
|
My memory!
|
|
I...sold my radio!
|
I...hawked my television!
|
I...sold my radio!
|
I, oh I, I
|
I sold it all, I,
|
I gave it all away, I did
|
I gave it all away, I did,
|
I gave it all away, I did, I did,
|
Give it all away, I did, I
|
I gave it all away, I did I did I did I did I did I did I did
|
Said I gave it away
|
I did, I
|
Gave it all away, I threw my silicon chips down
|
In no landfill and just walked away
|
So that I could heal, heal my body, heal my body
|
Heal my mind, my soul
|
In no landfill
|
Walked away...
|
Walked away...
|
walked away...
|
walked away
|
Threw my silicon chips down
|
Down, down
|
Down, down
|
(Down, down)
|
(Down, down)
|
(Down, down)
|
(Down, down)
|
(Down, down)
|
