I wanted this to be like an SNL Digital Short, but I only had sub-megapixel video from my Nokia C3, so I couldn't get the chroma key right. Lyrics were recorded with a 50-peso mic from CDR King.
CHORUS
I'm paying bills y'all (He's a big man)
I'm paying bills y'all (Don't be jealous)
Look at me now, I'm paying bills y'all
When I woke up there was a note on my door
I tore it wide open and my mouth hit the floor
A disconnection notice and a note from my mother
Money's on the counter and don't bother the driver
It's gon' be a long walk so I need some breakfast
But I saw the helps in a morning tryst
They caught me peepin' so they said, "go away" (free show)
It's gonna be a good day (pause, then chorus)
REPEAT CHORUS
When I got to Meralco there was a three hour line (oh yeah)
But I got a pack lunch so I'm gonna be fine (last night's dinner)
I see people reading to pass away time (they're veterans)
I forgot mine so peeps to listen to my rhyme
335 on the screen, that's my number
My knees like jelly as I walk up to the counter
Hands cold and clammy as I talk to the cashier
OMG, is this true? Still can't believe I'm here
REFRAIN
Never thought that I could pay the bills
I'm a big man now, no time for cheap thrills
What's next? Water, cable, internet, or any bayad center
Hope my friends in college could see that I'm a winner
CHORUS
Yeah, may sukli pa pang McDo
