Sammy Hagar

Now, listen...
My paycheck after taxes barely pays the rent
I do the town on Friday, by Tuesday, its all spent.
Two bucks an hour, this job aint too hip.
My lovelifes turning sour working the night-shift.
Its the pits! Its a one way trip on a sinking ship
Aint it the pits, but you just cant quit
When the scale wont tip or the key dont fit.
Two $6.50 tickets to hassle with the crowd
I got hit with a Frizbee, the band played too loud.
I got all their records, man, and loved all their hits,
But this is the worst! Its the pits!
Oh, you cant keep it lit then it sticks to your lip.
Oh, aint it the pits when the record skips and the TV quits.
Youre in deeper and deeper, you dig into the pit.
The climb is always steep - you cant get a lift.
Aint it the pits!
Its the bottom of the list
Its all wing tips and double-knits.
Its the pits.
Slip out onto the freeway, down all the gears-
Things were just gettin heavy when the red light appears.
He said, "Get outta the car, boy."
He put the cuffs on my wrist, read me my rights, oh things got intense.
I got 90 days in jail, no one would go my bail, so there I sit.
Its the pits!
When the waist-line slips, 39 inch hips and your pants dont fit.
Youre in deeper, you dig into the pit.
The climb is always steeper, they wont let you quit.
Aint it the pits?! P-I-T-S - its the pits!
When the the faucet drips, it wont never quit
Oh, like a ten-cent tip.
[ The Pits Lyrics ]
