Lyrics
Things
By Gary Skankey
I'm going to sing about things
Bling bling things
Chah ching things
Green is the king of things
Shiny things
Clinging things
That zing their strings into your being
So that you can never fling
Away those mean stinging ol' things
Things, things
Too many people
Love their vehicles, and their
Flat screen TVs
Kens and Barbies
Love their parties
And their luxuries
But I wonder, when they're
6 feet under
Do those tingly things really mean a single thing?
That's why I'm singing 'bout things
Bling bling things
Chah ching things
Green is the king of things
Shiny things
Clinging things
That zing their strings into their being
So that they can never fling
Away those mean stinging ol' things
Things, things
Some are scheming
to get what they're dreaming for
But still they want more
Hearts can't put trust
In things that go bust
What can they hope for?
All you take when you leave
Are loving memories
So do those jingly things really mean a single thing?
