lyrics

Verse

Broken windows, empty room, a dim flashlight
Everything is all gone
And the cousin of my neighbor did prison labor
and he's living next door to me

You can get what you want and still have nothing at all
And the neighbors are gone
Got a cousin, owes a favor
Pay a visit later tonight

Bridge

Johnny seemed to lost it
Jenny sure did want it
and Antonio is a thief

Okay alright

I'll never find who's got it
He'll never know I robbed him
aaaah aaaah—

Chorus 1

Got it free cuz' you paid
Sold it on Ebay
Veni Vini Vincti
Cuz' I covet what I can

Feels like you got it
Know that you want it
but you never really had it at all

All say
Have it all some day
Maybe you can please me
we can share all that we have

Feels like you got it
Know that you want it
but you never really had it at all

Chorus 2

Maybe you can have me
With enough money
Now im gonna have to take
everything that I can grab

Feels like you got it
Know that you want it
but you never really had it at all

All Say
Who will I meet today
yesterday has left me
all alone with what I had

Feels like you got it
Know that you want it
but you never really had it at all

Interlude
It goes on and on and on and on
Feels like we got it all wrong
It goes on and on and on—
