[Verse 1]
Ornamental kindness heats both of my hands
Ooh, it tastes good with the money
Tried to figure my way home via the Hollywood Hills
Ooh, it tastes good with the money

And all my faith slides right into place
The air up there so fresh and clean
[Verse 2]
And we could be homeowners this time next year
Ooh, it tastes good with the money

Ooh, it tastes good with the money
[Chorus]

Dipping into a tear-shaped swimming pool
The lobster red glow of the apocalypse
Eyebrows trimmed
Gotta fathom your own legacy
Slimming shakes
Bathing on the right side of surprises
And a big mushroom cloud of the middle classes
Leaves a beautiful shape for you to project your fears onto
[Chorus]
And all my faith, it slides right into place
The air up here so fresh and clean
People from nowhere, they poison everywhere
Sketching ruins in the dark
