Rich - Lloyd Cole And The Commotions

She left you 1958

When the thought of another fifteen years

Was more than she could face

But did you miss her much well hey

You never gave her too much thought

In your newspaper grey

So waste away to Morro Bay

You never got around to yesterday

But money is for taking yes and

Rich is what to be forsaken grey

And giving it away

And even Jesus has a price

You’re making credit card donations

To television faith healers

Born again missionaries come to Morro Bay

They saved your body but your mind hey

And everything you earned you’re going to throw it all away

And waste away tomorrow

C.A.

is where everybody falls

Down off the wagon under the wheels

Remember 1970?

When the thought of a day without a drink

Was more than you could face

But did you miss her much well hey

You never gave her too much thought

In your newspaper grey

So waste away to Morro Bay

You never got around to yesterday

But money is for taking yes and

Rich is what to be forsaken grey

And giving it away

You’re going to hurt somebody it you can

You’re going to make somebody understand

Baby you’re a rich man
