Lyrics
Could you go to the grocery store?
I need some Pop Tarts and orange soda
You can drive the Mercedes
If you say "pretty please"
You can sleep in my bed tonight
But you better not have dirty feet
And I don't like talking after I fool around
I just like to sleep
Could you go to the drug store?
I need Advil and Robitussin and condoms
Take out the trash, give the dog a bath,
Do the dishes, and fix the leak in the kitchen
Little white boy, would you be my slave?
Little white boy, will you be my slave?
Little white boy, would you be my slave?
Little white boy, will you be my slave?
Little white boy, you make a great slave
Little white boy, you make a great slave
