Waste of Time and Money

Length: 3:28

Once I saw the galaxies
in your Jack and Coke eyes
and the sacrificial temple where
your monster always dies

Once I wrote a gospel
out of every word you’d say
and now you’re on the front page
of the USA today

Cutting to the front of the line
I find my mind
is no place to raise a family
And I was looking all over for ya baby

You were always right in front of me
And tonight I’m declaring your love
to be a waste of time and money

Once you raised alpacas with your pet komodo dragon
While I was eating cardboard in my father’s station wagon
Once I sold everything I owned
to buy your diamond ring
and now you’re over at CNN
sitting down with Larry King

After five bottles of wine
my friends opine
that I should consider therapy
But they’ve clearly never been with you baby
They don’t know about the things that you’ve done to me

And tonight I declare that my life
is a joke nowhere near funny
All publicity is good publicity
When you sell your conscience in the city
Thick skin need high elasticity
Shock your system with electricity
Pop us back to where we started
Pot the seeds can never parted?
Flowers for the broken-hearted
Take us back to where we started
All publicity is good publicity
When you sell your conscience in the city
Thick skin need high elasticity
Shock your system with electricity
Pop us back to where we started
Pot the seeds can never parted?
Flowers for the broken-hearted
Take us back to where we started
Pot the seeds can never parted?
Take us back to where we started
