I Will Buy You a New Life

I will buy you a new life, yeah, I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life
Will you please let me stay the night
Yeah, I guess I’m doing okay, I moved in with the strangest guy
I will buy you a new car, perfect, shiny and new

No one will ever know, yeah, yeah, oh
Can you believe he actually thinks that I am really alive
Yeah, maybe for a minute or two
Yeah, oh, I know we will never look back, yeah
I will buy you a new life, yes, I will
I will buy you a new life, oh yeah
Oh, will you please let me stay the night
Yes, I know all about that other guy
With that obsessive little rich boy
I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom
Money is the root of all that kills, they have never been poor
Oh, yeah, I know we can never look back, yeah, oh
I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom
No, they can’t make you feel the way that I do
You say you wake up crying, yes and you don’t know why
I will buy you a new car, perfect, shiny and new

I will buy you a new car, perfect, shiny and new
The handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about all the time before
I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new life, I will buy you a new life
I hate those people who love to tell you

I will buy you that big house, way up in the west hills
They have never had the joy of a welfare Christmas

You get up and you go lay down inside my baby’s room
I will buy you that big house, way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new car, perfect, shiny and new
I will buy you that big house, way up in the west hills

They might make you think you’re happy

I will buy you that big house, way up in the west hills
They can’t make you laugh

I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new life, I will buy you a new life
