[Intro: Pharrell Williams]

Hi, I'm seventeen, and my name is Bobby James

Every day in school, all my classmates call me names

And so this pusher introduced me to this thing

He said, "It makes you forget pain, but makes you sing"


[Verse 1: Pharrell Williams]

I got pushed at home; at school, I was a wuss

Now my life's a domino that pushers push

'Cause I tried it once, but I tried it again

Ran away, two weeks later, I seen my friend

And I said


[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]

"Hey there, mister, give me some cash

I'm high as hell, and I'm ready to blast

I'm just one hit away from being passed out"

Young and assed out

"Hey there, mister, give me some cash

I'm high as hell, and I'm ready to blast

I'm just one hit away from being passed out"

Young and assed out


[Verse 2: Pharrell Williams]

Man, this would be cute if this were just a dream

A lesson for you to learn, except you'd learn through me

You know, like in the movies, when it ends with a scream

Well, fuckface, I got news; this is real, and I did things

Traveling from Virginia to Cali, broke

Hitchhiking rides, me and my Calico

Shoplift for food when it was desired

I miss my family, miss my friends

I'm so high, and so tired

[Chorus: Pharrell Williams & Latrelle]

"Hey there, mister, give me some cash

I'm high as hell, and I'm ready to blast

I'm just one hit away from being passed out"

Young and assed out

"Hey there, mister, give me some cash

I'm high as hell, and I'm ready to blast

I'm just one hit away from being passed out"

Young and assed out

(Hey there) Hey there, mister, give me some cash

(Could you help me, please?)

I'm high as hell and I'm ready to blast

(Could you spare some change for the world?)

I'm just one hit away from being passed out

(For the world to see)

Young and assed out

(Hey there) Hey there, mister, give me some cash

(Could you help me, please?)

I'm high as hell and I'm ready to blast

(Could you spare some change for the world?)

I'm just one hit away from being passed out

(For the world to see)

Young and assed out

"Hey there, mister, give me some cash

I'm high as hell, and I'm ready to blast

I'm just one hit away from being passed out"

Young and assed out

"Hey there, mister, give me some cash

I'm high as hell, and I'm ready to blast

I'm just one hit away from being passed out"


[Bridge: Pharrell Williams]

Young and assed out

Young and assed out


[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]

Hey there, mister, give me some cash

I'm high as hell and I'm ready to blast

I'm just one hit away from being passed out

Young and assed out

[Outro: Latrelle]

Hey there

Could you help me, please?

Could you spare some change for the world

For the world to see?

Hey there

Could you help me, please?

Could you spare some change for the world

For the world to see?

Hey there

Could you help me, please?

Could you spare some change for the world

For the world to see?

Hey there
