- Well, she’s a gonna raise a fuss, she’s gonna raise a holler
- ‘Cause I’m not finding work; going out to make a dollar
- Every time I call my baby, to try to get a date
- WikiTree distracts me, and I work on it late
- Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
- 'Cause there ain't no cure for the WikiTree blues
- Well, my mom an papa told me, son, you gotta make some money
- If you want a new lap top for Wiki-Chat next Sunday
- Well I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick
- Now you wont get a lap top 'cause you didn't work a lick
- Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
- 'Cause there ain't no cure for the WikiTree blues
Ow (music - solos)
- Profiled for ten weeks, gonna need a vacation
- I'm gonna take my problem to the WikiTree Nation
- Well I got on the G2G and they said quote:
- “We’d like to help you son, but you're getting DOWN votes"
- Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
- 'Cause there ain't no cure for the WikiTree blues
(music – solos)
- Well, I'm a gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler

- Yeah, sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
- 'Cause there ain't no cure for the WikiTree blues
- No, there ain't no cure for the WikiTree blues
