They're lined up in twos
To smash down your doors
Flash bulbs and crazed papparazi
Give a nod and a thumb and
Poke out yer head
from a can like a ghost in a film
Poker straight smile nose job held high
Topper toupee beach blonde rug
banker returns hands you the jewels
And keys to a pink mazerati
Life thru rose colored shades
Blind to light of he sun
Life thru rose colored shades
The junkie begs red eyed rusty tin can
A dime a nickle a buck
make your way thru oblivious crowds
The teller the fortune the luck
Daddys right hand from his handed down
Spills out through your lying tounge
Preachin for praise a slight of the hand
Money web weaved sucker punch lands
Life thru rose colored shades
Blind to light of he sun
Life thru rose colored shades
