Fountains of Wayne - Richie and Ruben lyrics
[Fountains of Wayne - Richie and Ruben lyrics]
They opened up a bar called "Living Hell"
Right from the start it didn't go too well
They didn't have the vibe or
Quite the right clientele
They bought a velvet rope and
The door man laughed
They got robbed blind by half the wait staff
Six short weeks and they were forced to sell
Richie and Ruben
Don't know what they're doin'
Richie and Ruben
Are both a little out of their minds
Don't give 'em a dime
They'll blow through your dough
Just like they blew through mine
A-whoa a-a-o whoa-o a-a-o
Where did the money go?
Where did the money go?
They opened a boutique they called "Debris"
Together with some kid from FIT
Though later it turned out he never quite
Got his degree
Eleven hundred bucks for a ripped up shirt
That came pre-stained with bleach
And black dirt seemed just a little bit
Too steep to me - e - e - e - e
Richie and Ruben
Don't know what they're doin'
Richie and Ruben
Are both a little out of their minds
Don't give 'em a dime
They'll blow through your dough
Just like they blew through mine
And ever since the seventh grade
They've been sayin that "we've got it made"
And I haven't gotten paid gotten paid at all
A-whoa a-a-o whoa-o a-a-o
Where did the money go?
Where did the money go?
Richie and Ruben
Don't know what they're doin'
Richie and Ruben are both a little
They're both a little they're both a little
Out of their minds
Right from the start it didn't go too well
They didn't have the vibe or
Quite the right clientele
They bought a velvet rope and
The door man laughed
They got robbed blind by half the wait staff
Six short weeks and they were forced to sell
Richie and Ruben
Don't know what they're doin'
Richie and Ruben
Are both a little out of their minds
Don't give 'em a dime
They'll blow through your dough
Just like they blew through mine
A-whoa a-a-o whoa-o a-a-o
Where did the money go?
Where did the money go?
They opened a boutique they called "Debris"
Together with some kid from FIT
Though later it turned out he never quite
Got his degree
Eleven hundred bucks for a ripped up shirt
That came pre-stained with bleach
And black dirt seemed just a little bit
Too steep to me - e - e - e - e
Richie and Ruben
Don't know what they're doin'
Richie and Ruben
Are both a little out of their minds
Don't give 'em a dime
They'll blow through your dough
Just like they blew through mine
And ever since the seventh grade
They've been sayin that "we've got it made"
And I haven't gotten paid gotten paid at all
A-whoa a-a-o whoa-o a-a-o
Where did the money go?
Where did the money go?
Richie and Ruben
Don't know what they're doin'
Richie and Ruben are both a little
They're both a little they're both a little
Out of their minds
