Lyrics of $20 by Chen Huanren

gimme $20

for 2 nights every week

said I couldn't play so well but at least I could sing

and so I sang

2 whole sets

2 drinks on the house on every break

and so I sang

played my tunes

waiting for the day I get a break

singing happy birthday

the 2nd time today

these songs you dedicate are much too over played

so finally I get laid

only the ugly ones stay

took till she went away to feel the pain

and so I sang

with all my heart

wishing I could sing her back to me

and so I sang

so so hard

waitin for ya waitin for these

love songs to ease the pain

singing “separate lives” to tears in your beer

as I hold mine in

she's gone

to karaoke

and it's more than words can say ...

“it's more than words can say”…

I think I'm losing my mind

I played those songs to death

Yeah I played those songs to death

And so I sang

While my guitar is going out of tune again

Still I sang

2 whole sets

2 drinks on the house on every break

and still I sang

paid my dues

waiting for the day I get a break

so gimme $20

for 2 nights every week

said I couldn't play so well but at least I could sing.
