Nice Things Lyrics - On The Impossible Past - The Menzingers

Western wall's a jumbo screen 

At the gate, there's an automated teller machine 

Sir, empty your pockets, please 

Before you file through 

The king and queen foreclosed on their crowns 

The joker laughed and made his rounds 

He was drunk, carrying on, self-satisfied 

Western walls are closing in 

"Are you happy?" he said 

"Are you rich or are you dead?" 

Dreaming the dream 

Singing songs of another time 

Is your gold so strangely acquired? 

Has your name become known and desired? 

Have you degenerated? 

Are you running out of time? 

Do you want nice things? 

Sure, you do 

Do you call your nice things your own? 

Do you want nice things? 

Sure, you do 

Do you call your nice things your own? 

Do you want to feel safe? 

Climb the wall before the fall 

No one is waiting for you
