Lining Your Pockets

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well hello my old friend

You know I've been away

I'm not asking for much

But please remember my name

You've been lining your pockets

For no other reason

Than to buy up the things

That I gave without reasonable pay

Well I wondered through fortune

And I flirted with fame

But we never got the money

We always gave it away

Old benchmark on the park

He got lost on the world

But he doesn't seem

To know about any of it at all

He said - all the things that I wanted

You know I had to pay and pay

And so I say
