The Vandals - Moving Up lyrics

Hey mom, it's been fantastic since I'm on my own At first it seemed so drastic when you and dad kicked me out but it made me get my act together and learn what life's all about now I'm self reliant I can hold my own Movin' up, lookout I got me a job, at a food service place I'm making four-fifty and things are going great I'm cleaning toilets, making fries but in a couple years Your least favorite son could make the manager I don't need education, forget about a college I've got the motivation, I've got the knowledge I'll work my way slowly up the food service ladder and prove to my new family here I really matter Movin' up, lookout, here I come, Movin' up I hate to jinx my chances if it's too soon to speak but there has been some talk, I could be worker of the week They'll give me half price lunches and my own parking space if I ever get a car that's icing on the cake Movin' up, Lookout, here I come, I'm doing great I may share one room place with seven other strangers with bugs and d** and several other dangers but I command the dinner shift, and when depressed I think the four F's Friends, Fun, Fast-Food, Flexible hours cuz I got me a job I got me a plan you said I was a mess up but I proved that I'm a man I'm here surviving and I did my own way Mom and Dad I wish that you could see me today I'm Movin' up, Lookout, Here I come, I got a raise, Movin' up Lookout, Here I come, I'm doing good
