Song Description

She still has not answered, even all these years later.

Lyrics

well you got your 2000 dollar handbag at your side and a hundred hiding in you closet,

i thought i could change your mind but i cant,

everyone at your country club secretly hopes that i wont,

i guess they'd have to be poor to understand.
-------------------------

now that i know your incompetent and youre unfit to be poor,

i wonder who could take your place inside those gates and wear all that aligator skin,

show me the girl that could twirl in those Pearls,

sleep in them Diamonds and still dream about more Gems,

CHORUS:
well there's no one im afraid,
that could take your place babe,
there's no one,
you could ever love enough,

cause when the only thing you love, is the company of money,

Tell me What The Fuck good is love to you anyway?
=============================

Well no one cares that you shop at the trift stores,

cause you think its stylish to buy things that poor people need,

well it's sick and it's chic and i'm not impressed at all,

you'd get one helluva lecture if your mother knew,

she'd take shopping in europe and make you spend a long month at the spa,
-----------------------


driving that road toward opulence and your too far gone to ever get poor,

i wonder who could take your place inside those gates - bear all the burdans beneath your skin,

show me the girl who could twirl in those pearls,

wear all them rubies while ignoring the diamonds dying within.


CHORUS:
well there's no one im afraid,
that could take your place babe,
there's no one,
you could ever love enough,

cause when the only thing you love, is the company of money,

Tell me What The Fuck good is love to you anyway?
=============================

And now its easy always looking back child with a laugh - at the things you never lacked and the life you didnt earn,

used to want to change your mind but i never could,

and your father the attorney used to threaten to sue me for pursuing you,

and i really always kinda hoped that he would,

But i guess his princess always had the best protection from ever crossin
paths with the poor,

i wonder who could take his place inside those gates -scare you bad enough you needed to become,
just like him, one of them,

well you know hes the fool, who used cruelty as a tool,

tell me who would take your place inside those gates,

as that prisoner inside your skin?


CHORUS:
well there's no one im afraid,
that could take your place babe,
there's no one,
you could ever love enough,

cause when the only thing you love is the company of money,

Tell me What The Fuck good is love to you anyway?
