Aloha!

sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a corvette,…
thinks he’ll get the girl he’ll only get the mechanic,…
what’s missing,… ?
he’s living a day he’ll soon forget.that’s one more time around,..
the sun is going down,…
the moon is out but he’s drunk and shouting,..
putting people down,..
he’s pissing,..
he’s living,… a day he’ll soon forget.

counts his money every morning,…
the only thing that keeps him horny,..
locked in a giant house, that’s alarming,…
the townsfolk,… they all laugh.

sorry is the fool who trades his love for hi-rise rent,…
seem the more you make equals the loneliness you get,…
and it’s fitting,…
he’s barely living,… a day he’ll soon forget.

that’s one more time around,..
and there is not a sound,…
he’s lying dead, clutching benjamins,..
never put the money down,..
he’s stiffening,…
we’re all whistling,….

a man we’ll soon forget.
