Not About the Sugar by Earl Voorhees

I hadn't realized what I'd done
I couldn't see the path ahead 
If only I was more aware 
now all I see is painted red 

she doesn't love you for your stereo 
won't wear no ring for sniffs of blow 
we just need a strong portfolio 
for a future that can grow 

it's not all about the money 
not like all devoid of care 
but if she's holding back the honey 
surely there's no money there 

[solo]

We used to live in caves 
and the stronger they survived 
now we're all just corporate slaves 
the higher up the hotter wives 

I didn't come here for the pastries 
I'm not even staying long 
truth be told I feel like writing 
maybe put all this to song 

She didn't love me for intelligence 
wore no ring since ninety-nine 
guess perhaps I'd known her better 
if not out cheating all the time 

[solo]

it's not all about the sugar 
parking lot pops fail to sustain 
maybe if she were a looker 
wouldn't look so damn insane
