(1, 2, 3)
This is just a little samba


Yo man, I'm livin check to check
Nibblin on a candybar
Out on tour, economy size rental car

Ask for cash but they give me the business
And say the promoter can't pay
So if this is just a little samba

Then I'm broke with a microwave burrito and a !@&@e
I spent my last dollar to pay my landlord
She hates my music and took my extension cord

So I clap on, clap off, Andy turn that rap off
Gotta dress for less and buy my clothes half off
I look ridiculous

Little thugs staring at me when I step in the bus
Wantin fisticuffs, I'm always feeling strained
Cause my budget's tight like it was wrapped in cellophane

And sure, I would rather be in the Bahamas
But again, it's just a little samba



This is just a little samba
This is just a little samba


I make minimum wage (yeah you do)
I wear the same sneakers (yeah you do)

And man I need a haircut (yeah you do)
(Yep) yeah you do (that's right) yeah you do


You might spot me in a swap meet suit
When I'm at award shows bouncers gimme the boot
I own no home, I live in the garage

Ain't even got a car so I borrow my moms
Hold up, I got an email, it's a female
She wants to know about Del, every detail

It makes me sick but I can't afford a flu shot
Chicks come fat and got the nerve to wear a tube top
I got this one, she's a primate

When I met her she was just the type of girl that make your eyes ache
I made my pager vibrate, said I gotta use the phone
(Where you going) late

I have a model plane and a puzzle of a yacht
You can bet that I sweat when the weather gets hot
I travel a lot, to the store for my mama

It's just a little samba




I owe lots of money (yeah you do)
I need to find a job (yeah you do)

I gotta call a dentist (yeah you do)
Yeah you do, yeah you do
Well I star in home movies (yeah you do)

I need a new label (yeah you do)
I only date mongrels (yeah you do)
Yeah you do, yeah you do


Man, I stay on my mom's property (yeah you do)
I got an old skateboard (yeah, yeah you do)

I got a dog named Quentin
Does your mom let you have the dog in the house
Yeah sure, why not (that's cool)
