Rich Girl
Augie March

When I asked about your forefathers,

Were they murderous too?

You said it hadn't any bearing

Upon the likes of me and you

So we buried them to neck height

And we kicked off all their heads

Funny little questions, better left, better never, ever said


So I asked about your dead mother

Was she beautiful too?

Just a little bit warmer,

Than the likes of me and you

Well I'm no F. Scott Fitgerald

But I know a champagne birth

So was she light or heavy handed

When she delivered you your worth?


I asked if you were lonely

You said it didn't matter

These are old emotions,

We need to bury them and leave them

Move on to something new

We need to bury them and leave them

Like I'm leaving you


So are they making everybody happy

Writing songs about shit?

Well I know i'm not supposed to be serious about it, but I'm serious about it

But I don't wanna fight no battle

And I don't want to feel no lovers arms

But if the stuff comes better when I'm on my own

Then I'll make it so I'm on my own


You asked me if I'm lonely

But I guess it doesn't matter

It's an old emotion

I need to bury them and leave them all


From the last romantic year

And I grow ol-ol-ol-ol-ol-old

You were the first sign of vanity

But then I tremble at the sight of you

All the things that fortify me

Are all the things that petrify you

So you bury them and leave them

And I dig them up anew

I only asked if you were lonely

And you said it didn't matter

These are old emotions

We need to bury them and leave them

Move on to something new

We need to bury them and leave them

Little bodies in the backyard

We need to bury them and leave them

Like I'm leaving you


(I might be near you

Or passing down)
