Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous Lyrics

Always see it on TV, i read it in the magazines
Celebrities who want sympathy
All they do is piss and moan
Inside the Rollin Stone
Talkin about how hard life can be
I'd like to see them spend a week
Livin' life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
They could spend a day or two
Walking in someone elses shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall (they would fall)
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'
If money is such a problem
Well they got mansions
Think we should rob them
Did you know when you are famous
You could kill your wife
And there's no such thing as 25-to-Life
As long as you got the cash to pay for Cochran
Did you know if you were caught and you were smokin' crack
Mcdonals wouldnt even wanna take ya back
You could always run for mayor of D.C.
I'd like to see them spend a week
Livin' life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
They could spend a day or two
Walking in someone elses shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall (they would fall
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'
If money is such a problem
Well they got mansions
Think we should rob them
LLifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'
If money is such a problem
we got so many problems
think i could solve them
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
we'll take the clothes, cash, cars and homes just stop complanin

Lifestyles of the rich and the famous (3x)

DID YOU KNOW that this song has real events in it. eg.You could kill your wife And there's no such thing as 25-to-Life As long as you got the cash to pay for Cochran Is about the OJ Simpson trial where Cochran was his lawyer. AND Did you know if you were caught and you were smokin' crack Mcdonals wouldnt even wanna take ya back You could always run for mayor of D.C. This is about Marion Barry who was charged with drug offences. Weird HUH. Kewl anyway.

yeah... and both of those celebrities were black... hmmm....

Wow I love this song it's so funny and true. Don't they wear pizza costumes in their video? Either way, this song is sweet.

I think this song has two perspectives to it:

  1. They are making fun of themselves and realizing that this is what they are like and they complain, but really there are starving kids with AIDS and who have no parents.

  2. They're not making fun of themselves, they're actually trying to say something. All these celebrities are complaining and they have it good so they should shut their 2 million dollar mouths. Maybe GC is saying to those tabloid celebs, you know, "Shut up could be worse."

Whatever.

@Fallen Leaves no that's i just wanna live total different songs

Thanks, Wizar! I was amazed that no one had made the connection to Marion Berry in their comments.

I was just going to say the same thing. Being from DC myself, I always take pleasure in hearing them poke fun at that crack head.

It's actually true, however, that McDonalds won't hire a person with a proven drug history but apparently the people of this Nation's Capital will. Ah, the irony.

this song is the truth.celebreties( especially paris hilton who's a whore and a nagging bitch) always say that life is hard even though they're rich bitches.

man! dont people get that this song was written BEFORE they were rich and famous?!

Cover art for Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous lyrics by Good Charlotte

everyones being so harsh! this song is ok, and yeah i got into this band when i was like 12 and was a bit of a screaming little girl fan but they sorta led me onto better music. like a step up between pop and rock.

LLifestyles of the rich and the famous They're always complainin' Always complainin' REPETITION (wooah) and why are there 2 L's?

im kinda glad mcdonalds dont take on druggies...

This song talks about how celebrities complain about how they "have it so bad" Wow, I wish people following me around, taking pictures of me, being rich and famous were my only problems. This song makes a really good point.

Cover art for Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous lyrics by Good Charlotte

-yourfaceherefkr-, so amazingly true. seriously, if i was getting paid to do what i love, i would keep my mouth shut. no, not even that. i think i'd keep going on and on about how amazingly lucky i am. wish i could invite some celebrities over to my city, let them live my life. that'd give em a shock so bad they wouldn't forget.

Cover art for Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous lyrics by Good Charlotte

sure as i go to post them i find they've just been posted nice well this is a good song i think it's funny and definitely true famous people should just go buy some prozac and suck it up
