 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

I thought I'd move to Sydney 
To get a little piece 
Of the city life they talk about 
In the nineties.
Where everyone I meet 
Don't want to know my name
They want to know what I do for a living

My songs don't earn me money 
Or fill my pockets with cash
Every time I go busking 
I make more in hash
Everything I want is getting 
Further out of reach
Like that funky little apartment 
Down on Bondi

I've been getting cozy with a Kiwi boy
He'd kill me if I said 
He was sweet as apple pie
He's going to leave me and hit the road
He's touring with the theater 
If you see him say I said hello
All the birthday money my parents sent
Was spent on the phone bill and paying the rent
Frijole, guacamole anything you want
I'm working as a waitress 
In a Mexican restaurant
