[Intro: Wiley Beckett] (1, 2,... 1, 2, 3) [Verse 1: Wiley Beckett] It's Not enough, even when the records stop And the cars, they pile high 'Cause I told ya love It's more about what you say than what's inside And I know From the light of day to the end of darkest night And I'll tell ya so Even when you don't remember it like that 'Cause you have everything and more But you want everything beyond these crooked doors [Hook 1: Wiley Beckett] Why wouldn't you? Why wouldn't you? [Chorus 1: Wiley Beckett] 'Cause we're not gettin' famous (Why wouldn't you?) We're just gamblin' with our names (Why wouldn't you?) Wе love it when they hatе us (Why wouldn't you?) But for now we're gettin' laid off [Verse 2: Wiley Beckett] I'll wait here Watch from afar But I won't see you disappear Even if you can't see which side of the road I'm on [Hook 2: Wiley Beckett] And I know (Why wouldn't you?) I know How to tell it like it is [Chorus 2: Wiley Beckett] 'Cause we're not gettin' famous (Why wouldn't you?) We're just gamblin' with our names We love it when they hate us (Why wouldn't you?) But for now we're gettin' laid off Promise you it's comin' (Why wouldn't you?) This isn't what you thought it was 'Cause we're not gettin' laid, no (Why wouldn't you?) We're just gettin' laid off [Bridge: Wiley Beckett] And you don't have to know God knows I didn't know How could you, son? But go on, go on, go on You don't have to know God knows I didn't know How could you, son? But go on, go on, go on [Chorus 1: Wiley Beckett] 'Cause we're not gettin' famous (Why wouldn't you?) We're just gamblin' with our names (Why wouldn't you?) We love it when they hate us (Why wouldn't you?) But for now we're gettin' laid off (laid off, laid off) [Chorus 2: Wiley Beckett] 'Cause we're not gettin' famous (Why wouldn't you?) We're just gamblin' with our names We love it when they hate us (Why wouldn't you?) But for now we're gettin' laid off Promise you it's comin' (Why wouldn't you?) This isn't what you thought it was 'Cause we're not gettin' laid, no (Why wouldn't you?) We're just gettin' laid off
