A Short Biography Lyrics - Singles - Richard Julian

I used to work in an ice cream shop 

Sugar cone with a cherry on top 

This girl, she had a pretty face 

I think her mother might have owned the place 

I still think about her sometimes, no reason at all 

I took a trip in a Buick once 

Stayed out West for a couple of months 

The apples and the oranges there 

They shine a lot better than they shine here 

Other than that, things turned out the same 

Oh no, we got bills to pay 

Oh no, we got errands to run 

Oh no, too many things to do 

And I'm not gonna do a damn one 

You see, I'm working off this leftover buzz 

Morning after a part of it was 

By all accounts a great success 

I have many friends and acquaintances 

Thing is, I've never been good with names 

Oh no, we got bills to pay 

Oh no, too many errands to run 

Oh no, too many bills to pay 

And I can't pay a damn one 

Oh, but I know I'm gonna make a lot of money one day 

I got this hunch that it's on the way 

I'm gonna stack it up on my living room floor 

Dig me a trench by the living room door 

Hunker down and wait for the IRS
