lyrics

every time we end up hanging in the parking lot
we end up going into king's to check out what they got
we only make four twenty-five and that barely pays the rent
but you can buy a slum soda under thirty-five cents
girlies at the counter must think we're so cheap
when we walk up to the counter buying warm a-treat
there's so many different flavors at a price you can afford
so i can drink a slum soda just because i'm bored

i like slum soda
i like slum soda
i drink slum soda
i drink slum soda

fifty cents a can is such a waste
you're paying for a pretty label while you sacrifice the taste
drink slum soda while we're on the trunk
we tried all the name brands but we know they're junk
have to slow down cuz it's getting late
we're drinking slum soda since we couldn't get any dates
slum soda is the safest way to drown your sorrows
kirk doesn't have a nickel for a gumball so he borrows

i like slum soda
i like slum soda
i drink slum soda
i drink slum soda

i drink slum soda when i'm on the road
until the caffeine kicks in my head is ready to explode
soda keeps me up when i'm feeling tired
i guess i drink slum soda cuz i like to get wired
sometimes it doesn't always help my thirst
in fact certain slum soda seem to make it worse
when my hands start to shake i know it's time to stop
i think i'll move down south where they call it slum pop

i like slum soda
i like slum soda
i drink slum soda
i drink slum soda
