Love is For the Middle Class Lyrics


I got my G.E.D with a 2.2
I couldn't take four more in a business school
Just to spend another twenty in a cubicle
So I got a summer job cleaning swimming pools
I saw my little angel in a one-piece suit
She had a high-class mind and her face was cute
And for the first time I didn't know what to do
I said, "I'd better start to make the cash
Love is for the middle class"If all I had was love, would I still be lovely?
If all I gave was love, would you give up on me?
But if you measure love in false securitiesI owe you nothin' at all
Don't owe you nothin' at all
Don't need your lovin' at all
Don't owe you nothin' at all
HeyYour daddy got in trouble with the I.R.S.
Left your mama with a baby and a pile of debt
Sent you off to public school with all the rest
Now you're lookin' for a man who can pay the rent

And for the first time you don't know what to do
Your head says no, but your heart says true
When every other man just puts you last
I said, "I'd better make the cash
Love is for the middle class"If all I had was love, would I still be lovely?
If all I gave was love, would you give up on me?
But if you measure love in false securitiesI owe you nothin' at all
Don't owe you nothin' at all
Don't need your lovin' at all
Don't owe you nothin' at all
HeyOh, I wouldn't mind it if we nickle and we dime it
Just to be together in the end
Maybe just a little till we make it to the middle
And they're takin' half of every cent
If you can find a brother that can take you from the gutter
Then I get if you gotta go
But does he really see you like you know I really see you?
Does he love you with his rebel soul
Like I can love you, baby?
Like I do?I said, "I'd better make the cash
Love is for the middle class"
I said, "I'd better make the cash
Love is for the middle class"If all I had was love, would I still be lovely?
If all I gave was love, would you give up on me?
But if you measure love in false securitiesI owe you nothin' at all
Don't owe you nothin' at all
Don't need your lovin' at all
Don't owe you nothin' at all
I owe you nothin' at all
Don't owe you nothin' at all
Don't need your lovin' at all
Don't owe you nothin' at all
Hey

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
House of Heroes creates a unique and new breed of music: verging on the safe line of pop-punk rock and blending the dangerousness of indie-style rock. They are composed of members Tim Skipper (lead vocals, guitar), A.J. Babcock (bgv's and bass), Colin Rigsby (bgv's and drums), and Jared Rigsby (bgv's and guitar).

House of Heroes doesn't just sing songs, they tell stories. Songs like "In the Valley of the Dying Sun"(telling a version of the story of Jacob in the bible) and "Code Name: Raven"(the story of a spy in the time of World War II) draw listeners in by setting stories of love, sacrifice, and war to a non-specific song set-up and engaging music. Other songs, like "Friday Night", "Faces", or "The Drugs the Drugs" show the emptiness of man's meaningless desires. Distinguished lyrics and music that backs it up, pushing it forward, give listeners a unique experience. A band not scared of being different, House of Heroes certainly distinguishes themselves from the bunch.

Releases include: "What You Want Is Now", with tracks like "Julia", "The Lead Role In The Cage", and strings-backed "Uncomfortable" make the album House of Heroes's most rock-lead album. Self- titled "House of Heroes" and "Say No More" ( a re-release of the first with extra songs) posess the most edgy, indie-rock sound, lead by songs "Buckets For Bullet Wounds", "Serial Sleepers", "You Are the Judas of the Cheerleading Squad", and 9 minute closer "Angels In Top Hats." 2010 release "The End Is Not the End" gets its name from the lyrics in the acoustic driven song "By Your Side" of the album. Tracks like "In the Valley of the Dying Sun", "Leave You Now", and epic-like "Field of Daggers" make an argument to "The End..." being the band's most creative album yet. Their most recent release, "Suburba," continues the creative trend with the rock sound of "Independance Day for a Petty Thief" to the beautiful worship anthem "Salt in the Sea." Other releases include the holiday song "Silent Night", DC Talk cover "Day By Day", and the band's most different output, "The Acoustic End EP", which includes the acoustic version of the song "If'" (from "the End Is Not the End"),"New Moon", and "Ghost." A well-worked "Serial Sleepers (Acoustic)" is available for free on freehoh.com. The band has also released "Meets the Beatles EP" which includes three Beatles cover: "Can't Buy Me Love", "It Won't Be Long", and "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da."
Rumours from the band's facebook page indicate a new EP coming sometime soon.
