I took what I could find
SI MI
I cried when I was lonely

I feel down when I was blind
FA#m MI
But don't damn me when I speak

A piece of my mind

I put the pen to the paper

'Cause it's all a part of me

Vicarious existence is a fucking waste of time

Intro MI7/

Diamonds and fast cars
Money to burn

Got my feet in the sand
I got a house on the hill
I got a headache like a mother
Twice the price of my thrills
MI7
And it's a cold day it's a continental drift
I said this traffic is hell
Can you give me a lift
And I'll try to paint a story
Got your pictures to tell
Yeah, you got to make a living
With what you bring yourself to sell

I got some genuine
Imitation
Bad apples
Free sample
For your peace of mind

Gold and caviar
Now whyn't you pour my apathy
I'd have all my bases covered
If I could teach my hands to see
MI7
But now we're down in the deep end
Where they'd love to watch you drown
I said your laundry could use washing
Will hang it up all over town
I said Hollywood's like a dryer
And we're down on Sunset Strip
And you'll be suckin' down the clorox
'Til your life's all nice and crisp

Watching reruns of my life
When you reach the point of breaking
Know it's gonna take sometime
To heal the broken memories
That another man would need
MI FA
Just to survive
