Paradice

(Album: Rebirth - 2010)

Moolah babe
She was a young girl in pursuit of glory and fame
She would do anything she could to feel the flame
When everybody know your move and the things you pay
She finally made all her dreams come true and then she screamed

Oh no, this ain't paradise! Oh no, this ain't paradise!
Oh no, this ain't paradise! (Yeah)
Oh no, this ain't paradise! Oh no, this ain't paradise!
You know, this ain't paradise

He was a young boy in pursuit of money and fame
And he would do anything he could to kill the pain
When everybody know your moves, they speak of your name
And oh, all over the late-night local news I heard him scream

Oh no, this ain't paradise! Oh no, this ain't paradise!
Oh no, this ain't paradise! (Yeah)
Oh no, this ain't paradise! Oh no, this ain't paradise!
You know, this ain't paradise

Whoa
I say the sun don't shine forever (Oh oh oh oh oh)
And everything that glitter ain't gold (Ah)
I say love don't love forever (Oh oh oh oh oh)
And everything that's new gets old (rah)

Sometimes we try to find the road to the riches
Need roadside assistance
Blisters on my knees, from begging for forgiveness
Ain't no dollars on my trees, but mileage on my feet
'Cause I been climbing to the peak and running from the bullshit
I'm tired of playing the same song, who told the DJ bring it back?
Dead Presidents, bullet in Abraham Lincoln hat
Staring at big poster, I swear that he be winking back
Cut school, sell crack, sorry I'm just thinking back
Call me crazy, I've been called worse
It's like I have it all, but what's it all worth?
Ha ha, I'm probably better in my afterlife
I should cherish life, but this just ain't paradise

Oh no, this ain't paradise! Oh no, this ain't paradise!
Oh no, this ain't paradise! (Oh, oh oh oh)
This ain't paradise; no, this ain't paradise
This ain't paradise
