no More Luxuries Lyrics by Jim Caroll

no More Luxuries Lyrics

    Your uncle's scandals shook the house of lords
    Your daddy's squeezed out as chairman of the board
    No more doctors write you no more 'scripts
    No more intercontinental trips

    No more luxuries
    No more luxuries

    No more crystal pistols up your nose
    The dry cleaner wants money on the clothes
    The rolls royce, my dear . . . need it be said?
    If i were you i would think "mo-ped"

    Refrain:
    No more luxury . . .
    No more luxuries
    And all you are left with is me
    Left with me
    Left with me
    No more luxuries

    You gotta do it in a whole new way
    But i'm gonna make a vow to stay
    We gotta eat it off the floor a while
    You don't even have a phone to dial
    Do it in a whole new way,
    Honey, that's the price we pay

    Your necklaces have turned to centipedes
    They slowly crawled away . . .
    And the bar is empty and there ain't no waiter
    The ice all melts in the refrigerator
    The dead meat drips
    On the asparagus tips

    There's no more luxuries
    You're left with me
    No more, no more
    There's no more luxuries

    That article on you in interview
    It was dropped for a feature on monaco's zoo
    Calvin called, he wants his hand-made vest
    And it's snip snip to your american express

    No more luxuries
    No more luxuries
    And all you are left with is me
    Just me, mon cheri

    No more lunching out at "21"
    What you get now comes inside a bun
    "c'est la vie," the color tv
    That's gone too, but i'll stay with you

    Repeat refrain
