Modern Day Living
This modern day living it brings out the worst in me
What I got, I don’t want
What I don’t got I really really need
I surround myself with similar minds
We’re petty and pouting most of the time
Oblivious to spiritual crimes
We think living is the same as getting
I want a man with big muscles on his chest
I want to get lost in the mystery of his differentiated pecs
And when the conversation turns kind of dull
I’ll see him as a picture hanging on my wall
And I’ll compliment myself on my excellant taste
Ain’t living the same, living the same as having?
Yesterday I got my new catalog in the mail
And everybody’s secret is having their summer sale
I want the pink satin I want the blue lace
I want those big tits with no hips and no waist
I want the kind of lifestyle that comes with that face
Ain’t living the same, living the same as buying?
CHO: NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA....
And I’m going to be famous, oh! someday somewhere
And I want each and every one of you to be there
I’m going to bleach my hair blonde for the camera lights
Create a trend from my deep inner life
Carefully packaged and merchandised
Ain’t living the same, living the same as selling?
This modern day living it brings out the worst in me
What I got, I don’t want
What I don’t got I really really need
I surround myself with similar minds we’re pett y and pouting most of the time
Oblivious to spiritual crimes -we think living is the same as getting
