Verse 1:
Oh, Addison, you used to wear your hair down
Blow me a kiss from the cross-town bound for work at some dead end job
But you tired of all the stale air in your tip jar
As rode by all the mansions behind walls
Chorus 1:
Simple life's not a simple as you thought it was
Single day's not as short as you'd like
Honest dollar is still only worth a dollar
Existence isn't larger than life
Verse 2:
Was it that I failed to take the trash out?
Or was it that the floor you swept was never coming clean?
You left me with your pile of dirty laundry
Afraid to face what lies benieth the stains
Chorus 1
Bridge:
Oh Addison
It may be cheap to point the finger
But you left
Me for a guy who pulls six figures
Second class
I guess I can't deny the truth
Love for cash
Tell me then what does that make you?
Verse 3:
And now they've got you slaving in their gold mines
And waltzing with a perfect smile below their chandelier
Weary of the fit of your glass slippers
Too full from all your stupid whims to care
Chorus 2:
Life is simply not what you thought it was
Single day's not as short as you'd like
Honest dollar is still only worth a dollar
Existence isn't larger than life
