Real Bad Thing

Parody of "Real Good Thing" by the Newsboys

When we don't get the stuff we should,
That's a real bad thing, a real bad thing.
When we get what we can't afford,
That's a real bad thing, a real bad thing.

Born to shop and then go broke,
So broke you can't buy a coke.
Sell the Volvo, shred the visa,
Get the cash to buy your pizza.
Great idea, the only catch is,
You don't buy stuff without payin taxes.

(chorus)

Accountant's comin, looking grim,
"Did you send your taxes in?"
Check your balance through the years,
All accounts are in arrears,
All the debts that you can't meet,
Park you here in the homeless suite.

(chorus)
When we shop and we don't get bored,
That's a real bad thing (money), a real bad thing.(money)
When we get what we can't afford,
That's a real bad thing(money!), a real bad thing.(money!)
