Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Big trucks

Raw beef

Holy smokes man, I'm up to my neck

hope the friggin boss has cut my check

I've been broke ever since the big bang

running out of time, got bills up to ying yang

Shovelling shit to keep food in my gut

just like Achilles I brood in my hut

I turned on the news i knew it wouldn't be great

I listen to the music but i couldn't relate

Big trucks, this one's for the kids

nothing lasts forever, you know how it is

we'll count up the money and make out behind the rink

have a bubble bath but not the kind you think X2

Glamour and glitz it must be a joke

well how could you forget about some regular folk?

the ugly and poor, the hard working too

now there's more of us than there is of you

So open your eyeballs and shut your yap

do us all a favour and cut the crap

now I've got some words you can take to the bank

your whole routine, just don't turn my crank

Big trucks, this one's for the kids

nothing lasts forever, you know how it is

we'll count up the money and make out behind the rink

have a bubble bath but not the kind you think X2

Hot-shot kids want to be The Fonz

I talk to my shadow and feed swans

punching a clock and wearing odd socks

got a '65 Buick, she's up on blocks

Can't run anymore like I used to could

been breaking my back to produce the goods

I try to get ahead and bet on the right fighter

I sit on the porch and torture the typewriter

Big trucks, this one's for the kids

nothing lasts forever, you know how it is

we'll count up the money and make out behind the rink

have a bubble bath but not the kind you think X2
