You Have Wasted Your Life, Now Please Stop Wasting Your Money
You’ve been prudent
And my God have you been frugal
You know you shouldn’t but sometimes you wish you were poorer
You made it clear, though, how you feel through certain choices
You never really did like the sound of common people’s voices
A good upbringing doesn’t always need renouncing
A good education means nothing if you don’t have a good accountant
You don’t recycle and you don’t do charity
You don’t tip waiters, either
You never made any allusions to being Mother Theresa
I don’t want to sound envious or bitter
I don’t want to sound judgemental, but….
I suspect your assets could be used for something better
But I’m much too polite to say…
Oh what a waste, oh what a waste
What a goddamn awful shame
What a pitiful little waste
What a waste
You have wasted your life, now please stop wasting your money
You have someone pay your bills
You pay most of your taxes
How much more can a civilised society ask of you?
You’ve got no patience, which explains no friends or family
But you do have people who have reasons for their loyalty
It’s not your fault, it’s not your duty, and it’s not your problem
It’s human nature for people to always want what don’t belong to them
They should focus their attentions on their own little lives,
Their own little bank accounts, their own little loans,
Their own little genitals, their own little souls,
And now leave you alone
I don’t want to sound envious or bitter
I don’t want to sound judgemental, but….
I suspect your assets should be used for something better
But I’m much too polite to say…
Oh what a waste, oh what a waste
What a goddamn awful shame
What a disgusting waste
What a waste
You have wasted your life, now please stop wasting your money
Oh what a waste, oh what a waste
What a goddamn awful shame
What a horrible little waste
What a waste
You have wasted your life now please stop…
Oh what a waste, oh what a waste, oh what a waste
Oh what a waste, oh what a shame, oh what a shame
Oh what a shame, oh what a waste, oh what a waste
You have wasted your life now, please stop wasting all your money
