Lloyd Cole - Rich lyrics

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
