Yeah so I put on a jacket and tie and went down to the Bund, start telling lies and making friends
Sure enough long legs plastic face comes up and asks me
“How big is your house? How much do you make? Now hold my purse.”
Strangely enough this was goal of why I came down but it''s not as funny as I thought it would be in real life
Then suddenly it hit me coming down here acting like an asshole just attracts another asshole

Poverty frees you
From the normal standard of behavior
Just like money gonna free me
From going to work

Beating a hasty retreat from The Bund
I find myself in who the fuck cares bar at who the fuck cares time in the morning
I buy myself a 75 RMB Marker’s Mark Manhattan
Goddamn it’s expensive but oh so worth it
Sure enough I run into the worst kind of Expat – an American
And this guy’s going on about stock trading,
import export business and what not
And I go, “whoa whoa whoa I got it - you're a fucking English teacher”

Poverty frees you
From the normal standard of behavior
Just like money frees me
From going to work

She made his surrender
To society so much easier
But it was his own failure
To despise success

C’mon everybody
You know it’s not natural
To like everyone you meet
So listen to that voice in your heart
That tells your brain fuck that guy

C’mon everybody
You know it’s not natural
To like everyone you meet
So listen to that voice in your heart
That tells your brain fuck that guy

Then comes the black out,
I’m not really sure what happened
But there's this feeling of Dredd that I must get back to my own neighborhood
And suddenly I have a revelation all these characters are critical to making up the Mega City
And I’d just like to say thanks for having me, I’m happy to be here
And god bless us, each and every one of us
I awake to discover I’ve signed up for 15 days of
free Chinese lessons at Tilanqiao

Poverty frees you
From the normal standard of behavior
Just like money frees me
From going to work

She made his surrender
To society so much easier
But it was his own failure
To despise success

C’mon everybody
You know it’s not natural
To like everyone you meet
So listen to that voice in your heart
That tells your brain fuck that guy
