[Intro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 1: John Gourley with Zoe Manville]
Hey man, I'm cool to lean on but I'm not your property
See I'm crushing down these problems cutting pain with poverty
I'm just tryna catch a free ride from the temple to the tomb
I could really really really use a rich rich friend like you
I could really really really use a rich rich friend like you
Let me be your one-man army, I'll campaign for anarchy
I been slipping through the cracks like I was clothed in Vaseline
Let me be your little sunshine in all this gloom and doom
I could really really really use a rich rich friend like you
I could really really really use a rich rich friend like you
[Chorus: John Gourley & Zach Carothers]
Crashing on chardonnay and Adderall
Driving head-on into the Wonderwall
Everyday holidays when daddy's gone
Living life like we're the only ones that know we're famous
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2: John Gourley with Zoe Manville]
From the Capetown coliseums, cold disparity
Electric fences humming like a hive without a queen
We're all tryna catch a free ride from the temple to the tomb
I could really really really use a rich rich friend like you
I could really really really use a rich rich friend like you
[Chorus: John Gourley & Zach Carothers]
Crashing on chardonnay and Adderall
Driving head-on into the Wonderwall
Everyday holidays when daddy's gone
Living life like we're the only ones that know we're famous
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus: John Gourley & Zach Carothers]
Crashing on chardonnay and Adderall
Driving head-on into the Wonderwall
Everyday holidays when daddy's gone
Living life like we're the only ones that know we're famous
Crashing on chardonnay and Adderall
Driving head-on into the Wonderwall (Wonderwall)
Everyday holidays when daddy's gone (Daddy's gone)
Living life like we're the only ones that know we're famous
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
