I Will Buy You A New Life Lyrics


Here is the money that I owe you
Yes you can pay the bills
I will give you more
When I get paid againI hate those people who love to tell you
Money is the root of all that kills
They have never been poor
They have never had the joy of a welfare christmasI know we will never look backYou say you wake up crying
Yes and you don't know why
You get up and you go lay down
Inside my baby's roomYeah, I guess I'm doing OK
I moved in with the strangest guy
Can you believe he actually thinks
That I am really aliveI will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills

I will buy you a new life
Yes I willYes, I know all about that other guy
The handsome man with athletic thighs
I know about all the time before
With that obsessive little rich boyThey might make you think you're happy
Yeah maybe for a minute or two
They can't make you laugh
No they can't make you feel the way that I doI will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new lifeI know we can never look backWill you please let me stay the night
Will you please let me stay the night
No one will ever knowI will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new lifeI will buy you a garden
Where your flowers can bloom
I will buy you a new car
Perfect shiny and new
I will buy you that big house
Way up in the west hills
I will buy you a new lifeI will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new lifeI will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new lifeI will buy you a new life
I will buy you a new life

Everclear is a rock band formed in Portland, Oregon, USA, in 1992. For most of its existence, Everclear consisted of Art Alexakis (b. 12 April 1962, Los Angeles, California, USA; vocals, guitar), Craig Montoya (b. 14 September 1970; bass, vocals) and Greg Eklund (b. 18 April 1970; drums). Eklund replaced original drummer Scott Cuthbert in 1994. Montoya and Eklund departed the band in 2003, but Alexakis has continued performing as Everclear with a new lineup.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Alexakis decided to continue with Everclear, organizing a new band that made its debut in March of 2004. The new lineup consisted of bass player Sam Hudson, guitarist Dave French, and drummer Eric Bretl. In the summer of 2004, the band added keyboard player Josh Crawley, and swapped Bretl for former Everclear drum tech Brett Snyder. The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, that summer. A self-released EP of performances recorded for XM Satellite Radio called Closure was given out at shows in the fall of 2004.

Free of a major label, Alexakis spent the ensuing year and half slowly recording material for a new Everclear release. He admitted that the time after the breakup of the original lineup served as a "wake up call", during which he suffered his third divorce and a filing for bankruptcy. Alexakis announced the completion of the album in early 2006,titled Welcome To The Drama Club. The new band is now on Eleven Seven Music.

In August of 2008, drummer Brett Snyder left the band after four years. He was then replaced by Tommy Stewart, who previously played in bands Fuel and Godsmack.
