There is nothing that competes with habit
And I know it's neither deep nor tragic
It's simply that you have to have it
[Chorus]
So you can make a killing
Oh you can make a killing
Oh you can make a killing
I wish I was both young and stupid
Then I too could have the fun that you did
Till it was time to pony up what you bid
[Chorus]
I could follow you and search the rubble
Or stay right here and save myself some trouble
Or try to keep myself from seeing double
Or I could make a killing
Or I could make a killing
Oh I could make a killing
Yeah I could make a killing
I could make a killing
And I know it's neither deep nor tragic
It's simply that you have to have it
[Chorus]
So you can make a killing
Oh you can make a killing
Oh you can make a killing
I wish I was both young and stupid
Then I too could have the fun that you did
Till it was time to pony up what you bid
[Chorus]
I could follow you and search the rubble
Or stay right here and save myself some trouble
Or try to keep myself from seeing double
Or I could make a killing
Or I could make a killing
Oh I could make a killing
Yeah I could make a killing
I could make a killing

When I saw Aimee back in concert back in 2003 she said this song was written around the time she had a mad crush on Noel Gallagher from Oasis, and that the song is really about him and the feelings she has for him, but the lack he had for her.
