Somebody called me on the phone
They said hey, is Dee Dee home
Do you wanna take a walk
Do you wanna go and cop
Do you wanna go and get some Chinese rocks?
I'm living on a Chinese rock
All my best things are in hock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
Everything is in the pawnshop
The glass is falling off the wall
My girlfriends crying in the shower stall
Each time it's a bitch
I should have been rich
But I'm just digging a Chinese ditch
I'm living on a Chinese rock
All my best things are in hock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
Everything is in the pawnshop
The glass is falling off the wall
My girlfriends crying in the shower stall
Each time it's a bitch
I should have been rich
But I'm just digging a Chinese ditch
I'm living on a Chinese rock
All my best things are in hock
I'm living on a Chinese rock
Everything is in the pawnshop
I'm living on a Chinese rock ...
