Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Breadfan
Open up your mind
Open up your purse
Open up your bones
Never, never gonna lose it
[Verse 2]
Breadfan
Take it all away
Never give an inch
Gotta make a mint
Gotta make me a million
[Verse 3]
Breadfan
You got it wrong
Some long time friend's gonna lose it
In the end who's a fool?
[Verse 4]
Seagull
Give it all away
Stay a bird
Stay a man
Stay a ghost
Stay what you wanna be
[Verse 5]
Loser
Give it all away
Never stay with the winner
With the man
With all the filthy money
[Verse 6]
Come on
Keep it on the side
With a ride
On a record on the top
If you're gonna be a bad boy
[Verse 7]
Breadfan
You got it wrong
Some long time friend's gonna lose it
In the end who's a fool?
[Verse 8]
Seagull
Give it all away
Stay a bird
Stay a man
Stay a ghost
Stay what you wanna be
[Verse 9]
Breadfan
Open up your mind
Open up your purse
Open up your bones
Never, never gonna lose it
[Verse 10]
Breadfan
Take it all away
Never give an inch
Gotta make a mint
Gotta make me a million
[Verse 11]
Breadfan
You got it wrong
Some long time friend's gonna lose it
In the end who's a fool?
[Verse 12]
Seagull
Give it all away
Stay a bird
Stay a man
Stay a ghost
Stay what you wanna be
