I fought the lessons of grace for so long When your trip's only five meters long And you find you've grown all along Join the living in noxious lullaby Only sleeping cabrones could sympathise Only they could forget their consciousness I was flat on my own my darling I fought the lessons of grace for so long

He was born in a murderous fashion The ass of the business class was his passion Number by hustle he numbered his muscles Honour by honest he fell down upon us And everybody's acting like they've heard something back From my baby, my baby and me

I love you always Standing in the sunlight some might say That her hair was falling down from the building that day The silvery ball was down by the bridge And she used to take pills in the woods where she lived And everybody's acting like they've heard something back From my baby, my baby and me Castles and tassels and flatulent assholes I love you, always

And it's fun, to be a dirty son One day at the bottom of the hill where they play She lost a golden coin and the troll would not trade her They say she lost a fortune and she lost it to her And then he grew despondent 'cause she would not desert him He laid out his hand and said "make me an offer" Then she asked the troll for just how much did it cost her You got to have money, you got to have money Then he told the troll that you got to have money You've got to have money, you've got to have money Girl you tell your daddy that he's got to have money Castles and tassels and flatulent assholes And you got to have money, you got to have money
