Breadfan Lyrics
[Intro]
1,2,3,4!
[Verse 1]
Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse
Open up your bones, never, never gonna lose it
Breadfan, take it all away, never give an inch
Got to make a mint, got to make me a million
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long-time friend's
Going to lose it in the end, who is a fool
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man
Stay a ghost, stay what you want to be
[Verse 2]
Loser, give it all away, never stay with the winner
With the man with all the filthy money
Come on, keep it on the side, with a ride on a record
On the top if you're gonna be a bad boy
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long-time friend's
Going to lose it in the end, who is a fool
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man
Stay a ghost, stay what you want to be, yeah
[Guitar solo]
Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse
Open up your bones, never, never going to lose it
Breadfan, take it all away, never give an inch
Got to make a mint, got to make me a million
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long-time friend's
Going to lose it in the end, who is a fool
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man
Stay a ghost, stay what you want to be
Go!
1,2,3,4!
[Verse 1]
Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse
Open up your bones, never, never gonna lose it
Breadfan, take it all away, never give an inch
Got to make a mint, got to make me a million
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long-time friend's
Going to lose it in the end, who is a fool
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man
Stay a ghost, stay what you want to be
[Verse 2]
Loser, give it all away, never stay with the winner
With the man with all the filthy money
Come on, keep it on the side, with a ride on a record
On the top if you're gonna be a bad boy
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long-time friend's
Going to lose it in the end, who is a fool
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man
Stay a ghost, stay what you want to be, yeah
[Guitar solo]
Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse
Open up your bones, never, never going to lose it
Breadfan, take it all away, never give an inch
Got to make a mint, got to make me a million
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long-time friend's
Going to lose it in the end, who is a fool
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man
Stay a ghost, stay what you want to be
Go!
Mommy, where's fluffy?
