lyrics

He's been heading towards destitute in his mind
Cerebral musings from a subconscious mind
The formula for happiness
He wrote it in the snow with piss
It melted now he's a pessimist

Multi-millionaire
Lounges in a chair
Grabs another beer
Inward truth or dare

The secret life of the rich and infamous
Mirror's cracked, bad luck for seven years
Doesn't matter anyway
Forty guns were stored away
Gambled on catastrophe

Multi- no one cares
Unaware for years
Another round of beer
On and on for years

People always told us not to judge a book by its cover
Look at all the life he took with the spotlight on the ground
Turned himself into anything just like a chameleon
Everyone who thought they knew him never saw that comin'

Multi-millionaire
Lounges in a chair
Another round of beer
On and on for years
