Everything Must Go

Lyrics

It's high time for a walk on the real side
 Let's admit the bastards beat us
 I move to dissolve the corporation
 In a pool of margaritas
 So let's switch off all the lights
 Light up all the Luckies
 Crankin' up the afterglow
 'Cause we're goin' out of business
 Everything must go
 ♪
 Talk about your major pain and suffering
 Now our self-esteem is shattered
 
 Show the world a mighty hidey-ho face
 As we go sliding down the ladder
 
 It was sweet up at the top
 'Til that ill wind started blowing
 Now it's cozy down below
 'Cause we're goin' out of business
 Everything must go
 ♪
 We gave it our best shot
 But keep in mind we got a lot
 The sky, the moon, good food and the weather
 First-run movies—does anybody get lucky twice?
 Wouldn't it be nice...
 Tell me can you dig it Miss Fugazy
 Now it's gone from late to later
 
 Frankly I could use a little face time
 In the service elevator
 
 And if Dave from Acquisitions
 Wants to get in on the action
 With his Handicam in tow
 Well we're goin' out of business
 Everything must go
 ♪
 Can it be the sorry sun is rising
 Guess it's time for us to book it(to book it)
 Talk about the famous road not taken
 In the end we never took it
 
 And if somewhere on the way
 We got a few good licks in
 No one's ever gonna know
 'Cause we're goin' out of business
 Everything must go
