Peter Bjorn and John Poor Cow Lyrics Peter Bjorn And John lyrics

When all is gone and things go wrong
We don't need them anymore
The artifacts and all they lack
We don't need them anymore

I don't have the means and so it seems
For now I can't participate
But I waited long, now the dollar's strong again
I still can't participate

When we don't consume, it seems we are immune
To all of the faults they sell
You know as well as I, that's a lie

'Cause I wanna spend, I wanna spend
In a never ending story but it always ends
I wanna spend, I wanna spend
In a never ending story but it always ends


And when I die, the angels will try
To count on my belongings
To measure my word, pure gold solitaire
To see if I'm worth keeping

But the house I rent and the car I drive
I'm sorry but they ain't mine
You know I as well as I, that's no lie

'Cause I wanna spend, I wanna spend
In a never ending story but it always ends
I wanna spend, I wanna spend
In a never ending story but it always ends
And it always ends and it always ends
