Everclear - I Will Buy You A New Life

Here is the money that I owe you, so you can pay the bills.
I will give you more when I get paid again.
I hate those people who love to tell you money is the root of all that kills.
They have never been poor, they have never had the joy of a welfare Christmas.
I know we will never look back.

You say you wake up crying. Yes, and you don't know why.
You get up and you go lay down inside my baby's room.
I guess I'm doing OK. I moved in with the strangest guy.
Can you believe he actually thinks that I am really alive?

I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom.
I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new.
I will buy you that big house way up in the west hills.
I will buy you a new life.
Yes, I will.

Yes, I know about that other guy. The handsome man with athletic thighs.
I know about all the times before with that obsessive little rich boy.
They might make you think you're happy. Yeah, maybe for a minute or two.
They can't make you laugh. No they can't make you feel the way that I do.

I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom.
I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new.
I will buy you that big house way up in the west hills.
I will buy you a new life.

I know we can never look back.
Will you please let me stay the night? No one will ever know.

I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom.
I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new.
I will buy you that big house way up in the west hills.
I will buy you a new life. I will buy you a new life
