Lyrics
[Verse 1: Nick Ray]
The baby’s in the back room
He hears him cry
As he’s looking for his briefcase and suit and tie He hasn’t slept in 3 days, that nine to five
Has been giving him some back pains
and he says
[Chorus: Nick Ray]
Can you give me something more? Then what I’ve been getting?
If you get what you put in
Then why am I still struggling?
[Verse 2: Nick Ray]
This boy has got some challenges at his school,
You know those other kids don’t like him he’s not cool enough Their poking fun and making jokes
While being cruel, he’s been thinking to himself outlaid
What can you do?
[Chorus: Nick Ray]
Can you give me something more? Then what I’ve been getting?
If you get what you put in
Then why am I still struggling?
[Verse 3: Nick Ray]
A mother’s at the corner store
She’s looking lost, she’s been searching for her baby boy Here comes the cops they said
Mam you better brace yourself, we got some news
Your son died from a overdose
It just aint true she said
[Chorus: Nick Ray]
Can you give me something more? Then what I’ve been getting?
If you get what you put in
Then why am I still struggling?
