lyrics

Never Poor

I am a wealthy man
But I'm in debt
So death to all my idle hands
Not dead yet
So bring the noise and rest assured
Never Poor

Late last night
Now we're on the mend
Lost the plot
You don't get change
From the time you spend
We sure spent a lot
Don't need to chase it anymore
Never poor

So eat drink sing melody
Don't be so angst-y
Know that you'll never have more
Might get what you ask for
Just know that you're never poor

Woke last night from the strangest dream
Heart beating fast
Ran outta time making time machines
Time won't last
It leaves in the night out our back door
But we're never sure

So eat drink sing melody
Don't be so angst-y
Know that you'll never have more
Might get what we ask for
Just know that you're never poor
It's you I adore
I know that I'm never poor
