Happiness and penniless


Well he's watching all the wealthy folk on his way to work
Saturady's so far away there's so mush **** to shirk,
He's got to keep his chin up
He's got to keep his nerve
But he just wants so skin Up
Sit down
And flaming well sod those who he serves
Whats the use of money of you got no time to use it?
He don't want to sell his life to you
You know he'd rather have his time
Than a Bob or two

Can't find the money for your rent
or repay the loans your lent
you better turn to god
Cause your up **** creek
and your Sailing into hell
You'll be wailing when they sell your soul to the repo man

Now he's unemployed he lives on milk and bread
His graduate account is so far in the red
He listened to his heart when he should have used his head
He suffers for his art
He's so Skint
His tenancy is hanging by a thread
Now he's got the time
He hasn't got the money
to do this things that people do
But still he'd rather have his time than a bob or two

Can't find the money for your rent
or repay the loans your lent
you better turn to god
Cause your up **** creek
and your Sailing into hell
You'll be wailing when they sell your soul to the repo man

All of his money is gone
(all of his money is gone)
What did he spend it all on
(what did he spend it all on)
He's never had so much fun
(he's never had so much fun)
All of his money is gone
(all of his money is gone)

Oh No,
Now my last penny has been spent
Still my life is heaven sent
Cause i got my friends
To help me through this time
I'll repay you in the end
Don't you worry
I promise you I'll pay you back with Time

Can't find the money for your rent
or repay the loans your lent
you better turn to god
Cause your up **** creek
and your Sailing into hell
You'll be wailing when they sell your soul to the repo man

All of his money is gone
(find the money for your rent, find the money for your rent)

She got out first .... away from me

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
