lyrics

dresser drawers are filled with pocket change
coupons cut, cigarettes smoked down to the butt
is this what dreams are made of?
adding up, subtracting down you find yourself sucking the rind
dying degree, graying amie
final payment made, had you forgot? 
the rightful owner of one delux cemetary plot
paisley satin lined how apprapoe, what a better way to go
dying degree, graying amie
no more eating crumbs, when my pension finally comes
you kids won't eat mush anymore 'round me
dying degree, graying amie
