about

This is the title track from the 2nd album by Leadfinger. It is one of the band's most venomous and polemic songs and it has a great riff. Enjoy. This release is available on Vinyl LP and deluxe digipak CD.

lyrics

Rich Kids

You’re all white and clean and live in the best parts of this – town
Yer Daddy bought you a house and a job
The silver spoon, I got nothing, so tell me your truth

Rich kids playing rock’n’roll
Tell yer Daddy he can’t buy you no soooooo – ul, Soul

Tell me bout your vintage guitars
You stick em in your two car garage
Tell me bout your latest cd’s
Don’t mention your plasma tv’s

Rich kids playing rock’n’roll
Tell yer Daddy he can’t buy you no soooooo – ul, Soul
Rich kids wanna be just like you and me
But they don’t work in no factory
& they don’t know what it’s like to be so alone, ohhh

Yer Getting down with the working class
But Your songs have nothing to say to me
On a search for meaning in a life
Where anything you wanted was given to you
When it’s over you’ll be gone
You’ll drop your fake r’n’r tongue
When it’s over I’ll see you run
Back to your palace in the sun

"Every song on ’Silver & Black is a winner, each rich with colour and diversity. It stands as the Leadfinger magnum opus - and it should rightfully open new doors for the band."
