Sing this to Life is for rent by Dido

Well my brother set me up with a good job at Desdner Bank
But it wasn’t really very long before it hit me
That the business that I worked in really stank
And some of the things I had to do were rather shitty

But I thought, yes I thought

That my life was for rent
So I became a City Boy
What did I care if it was quite bent
When that sweet cocaine was such a joy

I used to hang round getting stoned out on the beach
Livin’ the life of a real cool chilled out hippy
And I used to think that working was a bitch
But after a while something very deep down hit me

I don’t like life in a tent
Being poor you know just isn’t me
And I deserve something more so off I went
to analyse utilities

Cos my life was for rent
And I became a city boy
What did I care that it was all quite bent
When that sweet cocaine was such a joy

But soon I was beyond the pale
And I began to burn and crash
Until I found the Holy Grail
A better way to trash and cash
Now my book is selling fast

Cos my life now is for sale
And I don’t care who gets hurt
But I knew that no way could it fail
Cos I really had dished the dirt

Cos my life was for rent
And I became a City Boy
I didn’t care that it was all really bent
When the sweet cocaine was such a joy
When the sweet cocaine was such a joy
When the sweet cocaine was such a joy
