( Ironic story song lyrics )
THAT'S A PROBLEM
(NOT MY PROBLEM)
Copyright © 2008 - mickterry.com

1: Archie goes to work each morning
chauffeured in a long black limo,
makes decisions making millions
'fore his Gucci's step inside.
Driver swerves to miss a vagrant
& that moment's caught in limbo,
splashing water on some people,
coffee staining Archie's tie.

CHORUS:
Now, that's a problem I wouldn't mind having.
That's a problem that I could take.
Now, that's a problem that I could handle easily.
I'm sorry that's not my problem.

2: Jason's waiting on the corner
for the light to soon be changing.
In his pocket is the ticket
that today will change his life.
On his way to the Lotto office
for the winning pay arrangements
when a limo hits a puddle,
drenching ev'ryone in sight.
CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
Problem, problem, who's got a problem?
Difficulty, adversity, something in your way.
Problem, problem, who's got a problem?
Maybe it's how you look at it and how you make your day.

3: Billy's grimy hands are swollen
& his head & lips are bleeding
from the three young punks who rolled him
in his sleeping bag last night.
As he shuffles to the mission,
he's so grateful for the feeding.
When a limo almost hits him,
he is grateful for his life.
And he thinks-:
CHORUS:
