Making The Nouveau Riche

You say I have to get a real life
But I'm not sure how that in making
Someone or other rich
Is any more real than making
A niche for yourself
Well I'm without a zack, a truth
A coin, a kopeck
Or an elusive brass razoo
But my dear rationalist
Don't dream I couldn't care
I too grow quickly bored
Of the clothes I wear, so maybe
I should go and get a real life
Real like cutting a fine figure
Or scraping a deposit together
For it, heaven forbid
Just suppose I cannot live
On taxes and goodwill forever
But how is it
That the problem just doesn't seem to press
While my fingers are themselves
Pressing hard against the neck
I was sure that I suffered
And worked as hard
As anyone I knew
Well it seems I haven't
I better damn well fix it and
Make it look every inch as though I do
But still
I'll have to go and get a real life
And I've no doubt that it will happen
Maybe I've put it off for too long now
Gonna see if I can't get something better than a...
Maybe I'm amidst of a real life

Cartoons & Chalkboards

Do you remember your school days?
And making new friends?
I remember the good old days,
The days of fun and curious things done.
But- why must times change?
And good friends seem to fade away?
So many childhood memories,
And I wish that they were here to stay.
I don't want to grow up anymore,
I wish I could stay a kid forever,
I don't want get any older now,
Wish there was a way of staying young somehow.
I took my books and my little lunch,
Packed in my school case,
I remember my first school dance,
I remember holding her hands,
It was my first true romance.
I don't want to grow up anymore,
I wish I could stay a kid forever,
I don't want get any older now,
Wish there was a way of staying young somehow,
Of staying young...
Of staying young somehow...

Not The Same

Think of all the things I do,
'Cause I still hold the thought of you,
For someone else I know it's true so far away,
And I can only hold hold my breath,
And start to die a lonely death,
With you and me and all the rest, so far away,
Don't say I told you so,
One thing you'll never know,
You're not the same,
You've changed,
I don't need you anyways,
You're not the person, that I believed in yesterday,
You're not the same,
You've changed,
I don't need you anyways,
You're not the person, that I believed in yesterday,
I can hold it back you see,
I know it all comes back to me,
You must have practiced hard to be so far away,
You never wanted me to to show,
Just write me up, I'll let you go,
And now there's more for you to know so far away,
Don't say I told you so,
One thing you'll never know,
You're not the same,
You've changed,
I don't need you anyways,
You're not the person, that I believed in yesterday,
You're not the same,
You've changed,
Something's missing anyways,
You're not the person, that I believed in yesterday.

Second Solution

Standin' on a street light
Tryin' to get away
Guilty, Guilty I hear you say
Countin' down the hours
But I haven't got the time
23rd Precinct jumping on the line
What I wanna know
Is will I get death row
Or is there a second solution
What I wanna say
Is will I die today
Or will I get second solution
It was never meant to end this way
One shot violence I hear what you say
Standin' on a street light
Tryin' to get away
Guilty, Guilty I hear you say
What I wanna know
Is will I get death row
Or is there a second solution
