Listen up 'cause there ain't nothin' funny,
I want to hot girl and a little bit of money,
I want to little house where my band can live,
'Cause we're tired of movin' every other weekend
I want to go to parties where they got no guns,
I want to rock with my band, I want to have a little fun
Where thugs and punks and any other type,
Can sing this song and sing it all night,

Everything's gonna be alright now,
Everything's gonna be alright
Get down stay up all night now,
Let's do this one more time,
Everything'll be alright,
Everything will be alright, alright

All I want to do is kick the welfare,
All I want to do is get my share
All I want to do is kick the welfare,
All I want to do is get my share
And I don't want to run for the president,
I just want an honest way to pay my rent
And I'm tired of the man always shuttin' us down,
Tired of my old man 'cause he's never around
And I'm tired of eating off of other people's plates,
And I don't look important, so they're tellin' me to wait
Police records said they wouldn't exist,
I want to know the meaning of a Christmas list
Said all I want to do is kick the welfare,
All I want to do is get my share,
All I want to do is make somethin' from nothin',
It's G.C. baby and we're workin' with somethin',

Everything's gonna be alright now,
Everything's gonna be alright
Get down stay up all night now,
Let's do this one more time,
Everything'll be alright,
Everything will be alright, alright

We'll be self-made millionaires,
These lives we'll lead without a care, oh yeah,
And we'll see what we'll be
Everything's gonna be alright now,
Everybody say it one more time,
Everything will be alright, alright,
We'll see you when we get there,
We'll see you when we get there,
On the video, Or the radio,
In the magazines, On the movie screens
