here is the money that I owe you
so you can pay the bills
I will give you more
when I get paid again
I hate those people who love to tell you
money is the root of all that kills
they have never been poor
they have never had the joy
of a welfare christmas
I know we will never look back
you say you wake up crying
yes and you don't know why
you get up and you go lay down
inside my baby's room
yeah I guess I'm doing ok
i moved in with the strangest guy
can you believe
he actually thinks
that I am really alive
I will buy you a garden
where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
yes I will
I know all about that other guy
the handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about the times before
with that obsessive little rich boy
they might make you think you're happy
yeah maybe for a minute or two
they can't make you laugh
no they can't make you feel
the way that I do
I will buy you a garden
where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
I know we can never look back
will you please let me stay the night
no one will ever know
I will buy you a garden
where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life
