He had a black American Express card You know you can buy a house with that But you can't fill it with love If you don't have love to give If you don't have love to give you'll never be free You'll never be free of Vacant luxury
He had homes on both coasts But they are empty now With walk-in closets and all But you can't fill closets with love If you have no love to give If you have no love to give, you'll never be free You'll never be free Of vacant luxury
The cities are empty, the rat race has run Leave that luxury high rise and gilded age fun Leave the parties, the weddings and sporting events Don't go near a crowd if you have any sense Your neighbor is toxic, his fears are hunger We must be perfectly clean, just like Felix Unger
You can't fill a high-rise with love If you have no love to give If you have no love to give you'll never be free You'll never be free Of vacant luxury
The yachts are abandoned and colleges [?] The rat race now is to outrun the plague So many mansions to show you had sway Have all been defaulted and melted away There's street side dining on subzero weather We're suddenly all homeless birds of a feather You can't fill a mansion with love if you have no love to give If you have no love to give, you'll never be free You'll never be free Of vacant luxury
So run to the country and knock on the doors Of beautiful homes you'd like to make yours Just wave your money in front of a hick And he'll sell you his house, ever so quick You'll have distance and safety, except for one thing The people you fear will arrive in the spring And they'll start complaining, there's nothing to do You'll be so bored you'll go out of your head So you'll run back where you came from instead
Around and around you'll be so confused You'll be so controlled, you'll feel so abused That you'll have to seek treatment, from an all-knowing twit Who hung up a shingle but doesn't know shit Who'll say you're a victim like most of your friends But are you a survivor or is this where it ends You're a victim of luxury, of that there's no doubt You'll have to take less to find your way out You can't fill a person with love, if there's no love to give If there's no love to give, you'll never be free You'll never be free of Vacant luxury Vacant luxury Vacant luxury Vacant luxuryTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
