Lyrics
Important Things 12/2005
Have you read the paper lately
Ah ?you don?t read, you just play
So you wouldn?t know about the other guy
The one that got hit between his eyes
What?;s the matter, you look in distress
Cuz your lipstick?s wrong and your hair?s a mess
Don?t lose sight of important things
Can?t lose sight of important things
Missing 2 legs and he?ll never walk
Missing her skin and she?ll never talk
So you missed your pedicure and
Your despair is real for sure
Spend you life to defend your vanity
It?s everything your mother taught you
Could it be insanity
Can?t lose sight of important things
Real Important Things Real Important Things
Haven?t all necessities to make yourself the one to see
He has nightmares and can?t sleep but same goes for you
Have you read the paper lately
Ah ?you don?t read, you just play
So you wouldn?t know about the other guy
The one that got hit between his eyes
What?s the matter, you look so sad
You?re really thinking you?ve got it so bad
Missing 2 legs and he?ll never walk
Missing her skin and she?ll never talk
