I don't recall which song it was but there was one you really liked
And you asked me, so innocently,
Of my inspiration
Why I write the songs I sing, the reasons why I make them
Well nothing here is what it seems
I'll risk the wreckage of your dreams
It's so that you are always shopping
To steal away the cash your dropping
Listen to me when I say
Your fantasies are built to fade
So there you are, you're always shopping
Don't even try, there is no stopping
Don't misunderstand me, it always makes me smile
When I can serenade you as you're rollin' down the aisles
On this journey of your souls desires, the paradise of goods
You're doing just exactly what I think you should
Well nothing here is what it seems
I'll risk the wreckage of your dreams
It's so that you are always shopping
So while you roll you're really rocking
Listen to me when I say
Your fantasies are built to fade
So there you are, you're always wanting
What you don't have is always haunting
There's still one thing I have to say - my confession's not complete
I've made is sound as if all this has nothing to do with me
There surely is not anything further from the truth
When I have pretty things to gain and only useless things to loose
I wish there were another way
But I must keep the wolves at bay
I hope that you don't find it shocking
Rock and Roll is built on shopping
If you're searching for my soul
Come check out my chains of gold
Grab your purse and let's go shopping
For lingerie and silky stockings
Lets go shopping together
So that we can find ourselves
So that we can buy ourselves
Let's go shopping together
'Cause We are always by ourselves
'Cause We are always by ourselves
Lets go shopping together
So that we can find ourselves
So you wrote me a letter which I thought was really kind I don't recall which song it was but there was one you really liked And you asked me, so innocently, Of my inspiration Why I write the songs I sing, the reasons why I make them Well nothing here is what it seems I'll risk the wreckage of your dreams It's so that you are always shopping To steal away the cash your dropping Listen to me when I say Your fantasies are built to fade So there you are, you're always shopping Don't even try, there is no stopping Don't misunderstand me, it always makes me smile When I can serenade you as you're rollin' down the aisles On this journey of your souls desires, the paradise of goods You're doing just exactly what I think you should Well nothing here is what it seems I'll risk the wreckage of your dreams It's so that you are always shopping So while you roll you're really rocking Listen to me when I say Your fantasies are built to fade So there you are, you're always wanting What you don't have is always haunting There's still one thing I have to say - my confession's not complete I've made is sound as if all this has nothing to do with me There surely is not anything further from the truth When I have pretty things to gain and only useless things to loose I wish there were another way But I must keep the wolves at bay I hope that you don't find it shocking Rock and Roll is built on shopping If you're searching for my soul Come check out my chains of gold Grab your purse and let's go shopping For lingerie and silky stockings Lets go shopping together So that we can find ourselves So that we can buy ourselves Let's go shopping together 'Cause We are always by ourselves 'Cause We are always by ourselves Lets go shopping together So that we can find ourselves Explain Request ×
