Old 97's - The New Kid

The new kid, he's got money
The money I deserve
He's got the goods
But he's no good for his word
I should be rollin' in it
I've been a workin' stiff
As for the justice,
No one knows where it went
I'm gonna toil away
Until my Judgment Day
I will be rewarded
For the good things I've done
Believe me, every year
There is another one here
Don't you see I used to be the new kid?
I am sorry to say you'll get carried away
You will be replaced, you will be replaced
I'll tell you again, don't get too settled in
You will be replaced, you will be replaced
The new kid, he's got my girl
The girl I used to have
He's got the looks
You know, got them from his dad
I should be kissing that girl
We should be so in love
There is no justice
There's just dark stars above
I'm gonna toil away
Until my Judgment Day
I will be rewarded
For the good things I've done
Believe me, every year
There is another one here
Don't you see I used to be the new kid?
Believe me, every year
There is another one here
Don't you see I used to be the new kid?
I am sorry to say you'll get carried away
You will be replaced, you will be replaced
I'll tell you again, don't get too settled in
You will be replaced, you will be replaced
By the new kid
By the new kid
By the new kid
