Lemme tell you a story about
A mean mean man
We call this man
A light leavin on man
Well he don’t care
If he causes that fire in the attic
Cuz he’s afraid of the dark
A light leavin on man
He come into the room
The roaches all scatter
I hide all the pots
From the light leavin on man
Well he don’t care the cost of electricity
As long as his rent stay $150
He tight with them pennies
And he’ll leave the light on for you
He’ll expose you
He’ll elucidate you
He’ll illuminate you
The light leavin on man
