Age and money are the topics you should always avoid.
lyrics
I've been trying to keep up with Jones
but I rent my Mercedes and you know he owns
I can hide that problem with my credit cards out
you know I'm not going to let him find out
that I'm walking around in last year's shoes
Baby, it's all debt so I've got nothing to lose
But a few pounds,
Get that weight down.
Who said that money can't buy happiness?
Life sucks? Takes Drugs. Problem solved.
Remember, when you feel distressed
Life sucks, Takes Drugs. Problem solved. (Easy!)
My online profile says I'm still 29
but everyone lies, so it's totally fine
You know I'll never mention that I'm still unemployed
Age and money are the topics you should always avoid
In fact, that's the reason that I quit therapy
I'd rather save that money for blepharoplasty
So I take pills,
Five more refills.
Who said that money can't buy happiness?
Life sucks? Takes Drugs. Problem solved.
Remember, when you feel depressed
Life sucks, Takes Drugs. Problem solved. (Easy!)
