Lyrics
'It's No Thrill' © Mark S. Ludes (MSL)
V.1
Times are getting' tough and the money's tight
And everything is costing us more.
Gas is up there, getting' so damn high
And my rent pushed me out the door.
You know money doesn't grow on trees
You can surely bank on that!
If it's truly the root of all evil,
We gotta find out where they plant!
V.2
Politicians tell us that it's ok,
Everything is gonna be fine!
Trouble is, they all think alike,
They're all out of their freakin' minds!
Every place I go, everyone I meet
Everything is so fast pace.
Pay this, pay that or don't come back.
No money - get outta my face!
Chorus:
Well I sure don't have much money, But I got me plenty of bills,
If it wasn't so sad it'd be funny, But believe me it's no thrill.
Well I sure don't have much money, But I got me plenty of bills,
Livin' in the land of milk and honey,
But believe me, but believe me, but believe me, it's no thrill.
(instr. GTR Solo)
V.3
Politicians tell us that it's ok,
Everything is gonna be fine!
Trouble is, they all think alike,
They're all out of their freakin' minds!
Every place I go, everyone I meet
Everything is so fast pace.
Pay this, pay that or don't come back.
No money - get outta my face!
Chorus:
Well I sure don't have much money, But I got me plenty of bills,
Livin' in the land of milk and honey, But believe me it's no thrill
Well I sure don't have much money, But I got me plenty of bills
If it wasn't so sad it'd be funny, But believe me....
But believe me, but believe me, but believe me, it's no thrill.
