Old suitcase, clean getaway
I'm the one who takes the blame again
New day but the same lines
I feel like a victim of the dollar sign

All these years on my own
Fight my fight all alone
Till you came, don't you know
Don't you know

Baby you're the highlight of my lowlife
Take a shitty day and make it alright
([Clean Version:] Take a rotten day and make it alright)
Yeah alright
Oh in every circumstance
Yeah you make the difference
Baby you're the highlight of my lowlife (lowlife)

This bad taste, these headaches
Wake up on the floor again, ah yeah
My torn dress, this failed test
Soon they will be erased

All these years on my own
Fight my fight all alone
Till you came, don't you know
Don't you know

Baby you're the highlight of my lowlife
Take a shitty day and make it alright
([Clean Version:] Take a rotten day and make it alright)
Yeah alright
Oh in every circumstance
Yeah you make the difference
Baby you're the highlight of my lowlife (lowlife)

And I get so lonely
I can't make it on my own
And I need to call ya
"Can you come to my chateau?"
Take me in your arms and
Hold me tight yeah pull me close
Whisper in my ear
All I want you to say is

Baby you're the highlight of my lowlife
Take a shitty day and make it alright
([Clean Version:] Take a rotten day and make it alright)
Yeah alright
Oh in every circumstance
Yeah you make the difference
Baby you're the highlight of my lowlife (lowlife)

Baby you're the highlight of my lowlife
Take a shitty day and make it alright
([Clean Version:] Take a rotten day and make it alright)
Yeah alright
Oh in every circumstance
Yeah you make the difference
Baby you're the highlight of my lowlife (lowlife)

When I was a little girl
I used to think I was wrong
For wanting diamonds and pearls

I never had anything
No Chanel or Tiffany
Like all the popular girls

They say the best things are free
But I don't get what they mean
'Cause I want everything

And money doesn't grow on trees
You can't just plant a seed
You gotta work it out

Gimme some of that cold cash
I want to stuff it in my couch
C'mon bring me those big stacks
I need them bricks to build my house

Give me all of that, all of that 'til the ATM runs out
If money can't buy happiness then why is it so fabulous?

When I was only 15,
I packed my bags and I said
Goodbye to mom and dad

I was afraid and alone,
Living without a home
Got rid of all I had

They say the best things are free,
But I can't get what I need
Without some currency

And money doesn't grow on trees
You can't just plant a seed
You gotta work it out

Gimme some of that cold cash
I want to stuff it in my couch
Come on bring me those big stacks
I need them bricks to build my house

Give me all of that, all of that 'til the ATM runs out
If money can't buy happiness then why is it so fabulous?

Make that money
Make my own money
Gonna make that money
Make my own money
Make that money
Make my own money

If money can't buy happiness then why is it so fabulous?

[2x]
Gimme some of that cold cash
I want to stuff it in my couch
Come on bring me those big stacks
I need them bricks to build my house
Give me all of that, all of that 'til the ATM runs out
If money can't buy happiness then why is it so fabulous?

She'll take you straight to the bank
Don't marry that gutter skank
I know the pressure is high
And she's gonna cry
But that old news needs to die

You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you
The getaway car is waiting
And we'll ride into the blue
Church bells don't ring,
Church bells don't ring too soon
You're standing at the altar,
I'm coming for you

I know that she has a gun,
It's an emotional one
And in your vulnerable state,
She loves to manipulate
And when you're weak and in pain,
She comes around again

You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you
The getaway car is waiting
And we'll ride into the blue
Church bells don't ring,
Church bells don't ring too soon
You're standing at the altar,
I'm coming for you

She'll never love you like I love you
'Cause we were born to be together, babe
So, don't you leave me for another
Don't say "I do"

You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you

You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you
The getaway car is waiting
And we'll ride into the blue
Church bells don't ring,
Church bells don't ring too soon
You're standing at the altar, oh

You're standing at the altar, baby
I'm coming straight for you
The getaway car is waiting
And we'll ride into the blue
Church bells don't ring,
Church bells don't ring too soon
You're standing at the altar,
I'm coming for you

I live under a rock with a blacklight
I'm a dumb pop star in my own right
Started life at age 15, got ahead with fake ID's
If you're with me

Sold my soul to the man with a handshake
Lost control but I don't think it's too late
We're dying young on broadcast news
Forever 21 is cool if I make it

Girls, let's put on all of our clothes

I don't wanna be like American kids
I am not on drugs and I've never been
I don't care about your party, I belong to nobody
I don't wanna be like American kids

Drugs don't work like they did for my parents
I'm not down with the new hit
Cause today I just don't get American kids

Last time I told mom that "I love you"
Was the last time I ate food from a drive thru
It never happened like they say
I think my father may be gay but I don't know

So I burned all my shit in a bonfire
All my teen regrets were a trip wire
I should be everything you hate
I should be higher now than space but I'm static

Boys, aren't even boys anymore

I don't wanna be like American kids
I am not on drugs and I've never been
I don't care about your party, I belong to nobody
I don't wanna be like American kids

Drugs don't work like they did for my parents
I'm not down with the new hit
Cause today I just don't get American kids

Liberty isn't cheap and it ain't free
I'm a millennial blame it all on me
American kids
American kids
American kids
