Nice Things

Lyrics for Nice Things

Western wall's a jumbo screen At the gate, there's an automated teller machine Sir, empty your pockets, please Before you file through The king and queen foreclosed on their crowns The joker laughed and made his rounds He was drunk, carrying on, self-satisfied Western walls are closing in "Are you happy?" he said "Are you rich or are you dead?" Dreaming the dream Singing songs of another time Is your gold so strangely acquired? Has your name become known and desired? Have you degenerated? Are you running out of time? Do you want nice things? Sure, you do Do you call your nice things your own? Do you want nice things? Sure, you do Do you call your nice things your own? Do you want to feel safe? Climb the wall before the fall No one is waiting for you
