Maybe love is a luxury reserved for the rich <br>
Maybe respect is a commodity only money can buy<br>
I just wish all the songs we heard growing up<br>
Would have mentioned the words were such a lie<br>
<br>
The truth is a good heart is worth nothing<br>
Your status determines if you're a great guy<br>
Morality and fidelity have no value<br>
When compared to the gifts you buy<br>
<br>
In a world where every one is called darling<br>
Its hard to know you're that special someone<br>
Flirting with friends is a harmless pass time<br>
Something modern couples do just for fun<br>
<br>
Total commitment is passe, <br>
Devotion is no longer cool<br>
Or maybe these are just ramblings <br>
of a silly, old fashioned fool
