The Rent Lyrics

They say the writing on the wall
Can teach us who we are
Now you've gone too far
And now you've gone too far
Though I missed the call
My chance may not be gone
To burn out like a star
I'll burn out like a star

We measure at our lives
One drink at a time
Can't say we didn't try
Can't say we didn't try
If you let me in your mind
I never got the shine
You leave me asking why
Leave me asking why
Oh, no
Pay the rent when it comes around
And so
Money spent workin' out to now

One two and the money goes down
One two and the money goes down
One two and the money goes down

One two and the money goes down
One two and the money goes down
One two and the money goes

Oh, no
I pay the rent when it comes around
And don't you know
Money spent workin' out to now
Oh, no
Money spent workin' out to now
Oh, no
I pay the rent when it comes around
