Mona Lisa Lyrics - Jesse Malin

Stevens selling Marijuana 

Uptown to the primadonnas 

Medicate the counterculture 

9/11 baby boom 

Paulies waiting to retire 

Smoking like a forest fire 

Putting on the panties and the lipstick 

In his mothers room 

Nothing to do, nothing to lose 

And if you work your life away 

Well send you flowers every day 

And you make your departure baby 

And get high, high 

Hanging with the local talent 

Drinking like youre Shane McGowan 

Going through your garbage 

Try to turn into gold 

Down on the dole, selling your soul 

And if you work your life away 

Theyll keep your picture in a frame 

And you make your departure baby 

When you die, high 

Bobbie joined the military 

Jenny went and lost her cherry 

Hanging at the commissary 

Wants to see the Mona Lisa 

If they ever do release her 

I dont want to talk too soon 

Theres nothing to lose 

Swimming in booze, selling your shoes 

Nothing to lose, nothing to lose, nothing to lose
