I Don't Give A Fuk
T-Pain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Had too much to drink and now you're lonely
Bitching about work, your boss is nagging
Afraid to get laid off if you perform poorly
Global warming
Deforestation
I don't give a fuck
Someone called you names on the web
And now you're feelings are hurt
The troubles of the world keep you awake
Insomnia, and fear of the dark
Afraid there's gonna be another cold war
North versus South, East against West
You're protesting for the environment
You wear me with you're endless rot
Tough luck, I don't give a fuck
