Lining Your Pockets

Well hello my old friend
You know I've been away
I'm not asking for much
But please remember my name
You've been lining your pockets
For no other reason
Than to buy up the things
That I gave without reasonable pay
Well I wondered through fortune
And I flirted with fame
But we never got the money
We always gave it away
Old benchmark on the park
He got lost on the world
But he doesn't seem
To know about any of it at all
He said - all the things that I wanted
You know I had to pay and pay
And so I say
