Phantom Planet — Stiffs lyrics

Lyrics

The big boss is taking his hand
To the pitiful litle man
Who now is hardly working
And has earned himself a strangling
It’s enough to bring you to your knees
The state of the present company
It’s not too pretty
Oh So he squeezed out the days of his life
With something up on a slab of stone
This man that lies before us Has worked our fingers down to the bone
But he never questioned what he did
No, he tried to give us all that he could give
Well, I’ve been up there
Just a little stiff
Don’t try to hide the disappointment
We know everyone involved was sad about it You know you don’t ever get
Out of this kind of debt
This nasty business
Just a little stiff
