Paradice

Mula, babe

She was a young girl in pursuit of glory and fame

She would do anything she could to feel the flame

When everybody knew your mood and the games you played

She finally made all her dreams come true and then she screamed

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

He was a young boy in pursuit of money and fame

And he would do anything he could to kill the pain

When everybody knew your mood they speaking your name

And oh, all over the late night local news I heard them scream

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

I say the sun don't shine forever

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

And everything that glitter ain't gold

I say love don't love forever

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

When everything that's new gets old

Sometimes we try to find a road to the riches, need roadside assistants

Blisters on my knees from beggin' for forgiveness

Ain't no dollars on my trees but mileage on my feet

'Cause I been climbin' to the peak and runnin' from the bullshit

I'm tired of hearin' the same songs, who told the DJ, bring it back?

Dead president's bullet in Abraham's Lincoln hat

Starin' at big poster I swear that he be winkin' back

Cut school, sell crack, sorry I'm just thinkin' back

Call me crazy I've been called worse

It's like I have it all, but what's it all worth

I'm probably better in my afterlife

I should cherish life but this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh no, this ain't paradice

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

This ain't paradice

No, this ain't paradice

This ain't paradice
