Comboplatter

Jeremy's talking about the Bronx
Thinks it's probably a bad place to be 
He's says it's gonna be worse than Manhattan
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Looks like shit and it feels like America

Take the train on up to the zoo
Don't look back on what you didn't do
'Cause everybody's got a Monday
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Looks like shit and it feels like America

It's nice to be liked
But it's better by far to get paid
I know that most of the friends that I had
Don't really see it that way
But if you could give 'em each one wish
How much do you wanna bet?
They'd wish success for themselves and their friends
And that would include lots of money
That would surely include lots of money

So if there are any of you little green elves
Sitting out there today
Step right up, wish me old Irish luck
But I also need shitloads of money

And if there are any of you dirty rich old men
Sitting out there today
Step right up, I'm a lucky fuck
But I'm gonna need shitloads of money
I'm gonna need shitloads of money
I have got to have shitloads of money

(A few lines of Johnny Sunshine backwards)

He came over to my house
Didn’t even knock, just walked inside
And when I didn’t wanna talk, he said "Oh god, what a lotta bullshit"

Don’t be so in love with yourself (3x)
‘Cause I’m not, don’t you know I’m not

And I said, you’ve got a lot of nerve, 
Coming here after all of the times
When you tried to pull the wool over my eyes and my ears and nose and mouth

Don’t be so in love with yourself (3x)
‘Cause I’m not, don’t you know I’m not

And I said, you’ve got a lot of nerve
After all it wasn’t me who left 
And now you’re sleeping with that girl that you used to say you have always hated

Don’t be so in love with yourself (3x)
‘Cause I’m not, don’t you know I’m not
