service (Ferris wheel mix)

[Intro] The planet's doomed There was a guy in New York Who bought a Ferris wheel for a dollar He still had to pay sales tax on it It's true I saw it on a local news special People are eating trash You can be a jerk in a casino trying to make money Or you can live your life with empathy in service to others And now they're makin' it so you can't have any candy You don't get any candy now All the candy is plastic I went to the candy store and there was no candy Just replicas of candies [Verse] The world is ending Do you know how they make dog food? How could you eat it after you know that? This thing of ours is not going well There are people out there without food If I gave it to them I wouldn't have any I had a dream the world was ending It wasn't really a dream Though Because I'm awake right now And it's happening [Hook] You can be a saint or you can be a sinner You can be a loser or you can be a winner You can work for yourself or you can work for others You can work alone or you can work with others [Chorus] And all you really have to do Is say what you wanna do And do what you wanna do And all you really have to do Is say what you wanna do And do what you wanna do And do what you wanna do [Verse] You can live your life with empathy in service to others Or you can be a jerk in a casino trying to make money And no you can’t be both just imagine yourself out in the street with a roulette wheel around your neck taking bets claiming everyone around you [Bridge] You can live your life with empathy Be of service to others Find yourself in a happy family Feel like you've found a purpose [Pre-Chorus] Or you can live your life with envy [Chorus] And be a jerk in a casino Tryna make money Try to get lucky And be a jerk in a casino Tryna make money Try to get lucky [Verse] (Yeah) You can live your life with empathy in service to others Or you can be a jerk in a casino trying to make money My father was a rambler But his father was a jerk And now my brother's going to med school But I just dropped out of jobs I think that a clown is in the garden (I think I'm gonna marry you) I want a its It ice cream sandwich I want a plate of potatoes I think I'm having some cheese before I go to sleep I heard it’s good for your teeth But I’m afraid to look it up ‘cause if it’s not true then whatever I hear is bunk (I don't need money or a mansion if I get to stay with you) [Pre-Chorus] And now I don't know where to go But at least I'm not alone [Spoken Word] And she told me there are two types of people (“You can live your life with empathy in service to others Or you can be a jerk in a casino tryin' to make money.”) And then she says ("Now let's go to a casino And you can show me all the jerks you know") [Pre-chorus] One of those paths is much more fun One of those paths is much more funny [Chorus] In service to yourself [Poem] You can live your life with empathy in service to others Or you can be a jerk in a casino tryin' to make money In service to yourself [Bridge 2] But you can do what you want And do what you need And live your life how you please You can be a jerk in a casino Or live your life with empathy Or you can waste your life in a casino Playing slot machines [Spoken Word] Somebody told me (“You can spend your life Caring about people Tryna make the world a better place”) But somebody else yelled out (“You can drink a bunch of coca-cola in a casino Tryna win money!!”) [Chorus] What if I told you I could be both? I could be both What if I told you I could be both? I could be both [Spoken Word] “Like, yeah yeah yeahh! I bet it all then I take my winnings and give it out to others! It’s the perfect plan!! Then all the people I gave my winnings to will go to the casino and bet it all and they’ll give me their winnings and then I’ll bet those winnings and all of us will drink unlimited coca-colas for life!! Oooh yeaaah! “ [Chorus] A jerk in a casino A jerk in a casino A jerk in a casino [Verse] I was in deep I was thinking I should try and do some good You know Empathy and service to others And I asked the dealer I said, ("What do you think I should do?") And she looked at me And she said ("You can live your life with empathy In service to others Or you can be a jerk in a casino Trying to make money") [Chorus] And I looked at her and I said ("I wanna be a jerk in a casino trying to make money") And I put the chips on the table And she flipped over the cards And I saw the other dealer And the pit boss started looking at me Like ("How are they doing it?") And I started taking their money [Outro] Because I was a jerk in a casino trying to make money And I put my chips on the table again And I said ("Dealer Could you flip over the cards for me?") And she flipped over the cards and I won again And I said ("You can live your life with empathy And service to others Or you can be a jerk in a casino trying to make money")
