Cake - Rock And Roll Lifestyle lyrics

Well, your CD collection looks shiny & costly,
how much did you pay for your bad Moto Guzzi?
And how much did you spend on your black leather jacket?
Is it you, or your parents, in this income tax bracket?

Now, tickets to concerts & drinking at clubs
is sometimes for music that you´ven´t even heard of.
And how much did you pay for your rock & roll t-shirt
that proves you were there, that you heard of them 1st?

----
CHORUS:

Now how do you afford your rock & roll lifestyle?
How do you afford your rock & roll lifestyle?
How do you afford your rock & roll lifestyle...
Ohhhh tell me..

ah yea
ahh right
ahh right
ahh yea
ahh right
ohh
----

How much did you pay for the chunk of his guitar,
the one he ruthlessly smashed at the end of the show?
And how much will HE pay for a brand-new guitar,
one which he will ruthlessly smash at the end of another show?
And how long will the workers keep building him new ones,
as long as their soda cans are red, white & blue ones?
And how long will the workers keep building him new ones,
as long as their soda cans are red, white & blue ones?

ahh yea
ahhh yea
ahh yea
ahh right
ha! ahhhh haaaa haa haa
oh no..

Aging black leather & hospital bills..
And tatoo removal & dozens of pills.
Your liver pays dearly now for youthful magic moments,
but rock on completely with brand new components.

CHORUS

So good, ahh baby...

Excess aint rebellion.
You are drinking what they are selling.
Your destruction doesnt hurt them,
your chaos won´t covert them.
They are so happy to rebuild it.
You will never really kill it off.
Yea,
Excess aint rebellion.
You are drinkin´ what they are selling.
Excess aint rebellion ahhhh.
You are drinkin´, you are drinkin´ ahh yea
you are drinkin´ what they are selling..

ahhh
yea
ahhh right
ahhh
yea!
ahhhhhhhh right
