Billy starts another day Signs in for another day The morning is hot But the sun it don't shine He's saving for a piece of real estate Don't mind him working late He just might make the price With overtime
And he sang Freedom, yeah yeah yo Freedom, yeah yeah yo
He doesn't feel safe on the subway He doesn't feel safe on the highway His wife can't sleep at night So he buys a gun And Billy shoots in a straight line In a land of sunshine Bread and cars and T.V. for everyone
And he sang Freedom, yeah yeah yo Freedom, yeah yeah yo
Be a millionaire, it's easy Like the people on the T.V. Billy thinks of high school Where he learned to play cool And fly the flag There's a hole in the sky But Billy don't care Fear and famine everywhere For a regular guy Ain't life a drag
