Apologies to Good Charlotte
By Arram
*Yuki has just arrived at her house, and has entered her own room, when she turns on the radio. Hearing a familiar tune, and considering the pissed-at-Piro mood she's in, she decides to sing and tweak the words to try and make herself feel better.*
I can't believe he lied to me
And wasn't where he said he'd be
Mr. Piro-san needs to learn to think
All he does is piss and moan
About all he has to show
Talkin' about how bad he can be
I'd like to see him spend the day
Wonderin' what he would say
To the one he thought he loved
If he could wait and hour or two
Going through what I just went through
I think he'd break down and he'd fall
He would fall
*Yuki flops onto her bed, looking at some of the scans of Piro's art that she had printed, and starts tapping her foot to the music.*
Lifestyles of the skilled and otaku
They're always complainin',
Always complainin'
If I seem like such a problem
Well he's got manga
Think I should hurt him
Well did you know when you had skills
You could leave at three
And you don't have to worry
About others, you see
S'long as you can draw the art
You can forget me
And did you know if you were caught
With that shoujo crap
You know that all the girls
Would want to call you back
You could always just forget them later
Just like me.
*Looks over at her phone, and wonders if Piro will even bother to call.*
I'd like to see him spend the day
Wonderin' what he would say
To the one he thought he loved
If he could wait and hour or two
Going through what I just went through
I think he'd break down and he'd fall
He would fall
Lifestyles of the skilled and otaku
They're always complainin',
Always complainin'
If I seem like such a problem
Well he's got manga
Think I should hurt him
Lifestyles of the skilled and otaku
They're always complainin',
Always complainin'
If I seem like such a problem
He's got so many problems
I think I could solve them
Lifestyles of the skilled and otaku
I'll take your skills, sketchbook, and fans
Just stop complainin'
Lifestyles of the skilled otaku
Lifestyles of the skilled otaku
Lifestyles of the skilled otaku
*A tear runs down her cheek as she thinks of how Piro just stood her up like she meant nothing to her, when the phone rings...*
Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous
Good Charlotte
Always see it on T.V.
Or read it in the magazines
Celebrities who want sympathy
All they do is piss and moan
Inside the Rolling Stone
Talkin' about how hard life can be
I'd like to see them spend the week
Livin' life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
If they could spend a day or two
Walking in someone else's shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall
They would fall
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin',
Always complainin'
If money is such a problem
Well they got mansions
Think we should rob them
Did you know when you were famous
You could kill your wife
And there's no such thing as 25 to life
As long as you've got the cash
To pay for Cochran
And did you know if you were caught
And you were smokin' crack
McDonald's wouldn't even want to take you back
You could always just run for mayor of D.C.
I'd like to see them spend the week
Livin' life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
If they could spend a day or two
Walking in someone else's shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall
They would fall
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin',
Always complainin'
If money is such a problem
Well they got mansions
Think we should rob them
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin',
Always complainin'
If money is such a problem
You got so many problems
Think I could solve them
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
We'll take your clothes, cash cards, and homes
Just stop complainin'
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
