you used to work with my dad that's

right twelve years I worked there and

then the company cut back I lost my job

hit the street and interviewed for every

job I could find after all I had a

family to support

so when I opened a whole lot of

rejection so I stopped looking

I lost my house I lost my savings lost

my family how do you lose a family you

know how you get report cards in school

well did you ever get a really bad grade

like a D or an F and you had to bring

that report card at home show it to your

dad so he can sign it you kidding I try

to forge my dad's signature on those now

imagine if it were the other way around

and your dad was in school and he had to

show you his report card and I'll

imagine he shows you a report card every

day and every day it's an F every day

live with her mother in Chicago I chose

to stay
