Material Things

I love material things Because they light up the emptiness around me Nothing can hurt as bad as human beings And so I'm best friends with these I got the brand new Nikes on my motorbike I take it up to ninety just to feel alive I'll keep on riding 'till reality is out of sight Ninety three, ninety four, ninety five I bought a beach house so I wouldn't fall apart Made a significant investment in a baseball card Plastic and polyester filling up my broken heart Finally I'm a real superstar I love material things Because they light up the emptiness around me Nothing can hurt as bad as human beings And so I'm best friends with these My tamagotchi's always watching from his spot on the shelf He probably knows me even better than I know myself Lately he's really done wonders for my mental health Now I'll never need anyone else I just want gold hoops, gold rings, all my denim Japanese, please Jet skis and limousines, I just need these bare necessities To replace the empty space you left in me When you crushed all my hopes and my dreams I love material things Because they light up the emptiness around me (light up the emptiness around me) Nothing can hurt as bad as human beings And so I'm best friends with these Material things My, my material things Satisfaction guaranteed (nothing can hurt as bad as you hurt me) And so I'm best friends with these
