Lyrics


I could change my life but I won?t
I could get out of this run-down town but I won?t, no-o
I could get a car better than the one I have
But why would I do any of that to better my life
When I could...

I could mess up my life more than it is
With 25-thousand dollars
I can make more enemies than I have
With 25-thousand dollars
With 25-grand sittin? in my hand I could tell her I still love her
I could do most anything that I want with 25-thousand

I could travel to Hollywood and buy me some fame
Or maybe buy my girlfriend back even though I?m to blame
I could make all my dreams come true with my new 25-grand

But I?d rather mess up my life more than it is
With 25-thousand dollars
I can make more enemies than I have
With 25-thousand dollars
With 25-grand sittin? in my hand I could tell her I still love her
I could do most anything that I want with 25-thousand

I?m still here happy and content
With all the money I spent
Now that I?ve blown it all, I have nothing to show for it all
And I?ve?basically

Messed up my life more than it is
With my 25-grand
I?ve got more enemies than I had
With my 25-grand
Should have had a plan for my 25-grand
Now I?m broke with no hope it?s no joke
And I?m in a job that I can?t stand
