  1. All you got is this moment
The twenty-first century's yesterday You can care all you want Everybody does yeah that's okay
  1. Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers
  1. How can you just walk away from me
When all I can do is watch you leave?

1980s

No fans to scream and shout
When mobsters came to flush him out

It’s just as simple as that
Well It’s just a simple fact
When I want something
I don’t want to pay for it
