I'm just another ten percenter My mind is like an ocean My mind is like an ocean I'm hanging in the harbor
I'm just drifting, letting out the line I'm letting out the drifting line I'm trying to be a guy Who's hailing from Ann Arbor
Making jerk Getting perk And it’s good Yeah I would I'm a jerk!
If you're getting cotton mouth You better have some water Sucking syrup and soda You're going to just get hotter
But if you want to wile awhile but if you want to wile awhile Oh suck a syrup and soda Oh dance, oh sons and daughters
Making jerk And it’s good Getting perk Yeah I would I’m a jerk
If you got cotton mouth My mind is like an ocean (x3)
I'm a jerk Making jerk Soda jerk And it's good Jerk! (x5)
